New Consortium Plans to Reinvigorate PC Gaming
by Aaron Linde, Feb 13, 2008 1:28pm PSTSeveral marquee companies are teaming up to keep the PC gaming platform alive, according to the Mercury News.
Dubbed the PC Gaming Alliance, the group is made up of several companies with an interest in sustaining PC gaming, including Intel, Microsoft, Nvidia and AMD. The alliance aims to keep PCs competitive with consoles in drawing game developers to the platform.
The consortium hopes to expand the efforts of Microsoft's Games for Windows program, which sought to standardize the platform and improve consumer experience. The PC Gaming Alliance is expected to be formally announced in advance of next week's Game Developers Conference in San Francisco.
