Crowdstar, Facebook’s third largest game developer behind Zynga and Phrases, has teamed up with Microsoft to add social networking features to a new casual gaming hub.
Following on the footsteps of Yahoo!, Facebook, and Apple, Microsoft and Crowdstar are launching Microsoft Game Hub, in the hopes of tapping into the very profitable casual games industry (games that can be played a few minutes at a time). The uniqueness of the deal is that it will work across MSN Games, Bing Games, and Windows Live Messenger.
What this means to you is that if you play a game on MSN Games, Bing Games, or Windows Live Messenger, you can now see your friends’ scores and updates, send challenges to other gamers, and save your game in one platform and keep playing it on another later.
