OpenFeint to Bring Cross Platform Social Gaming Network to AT&T Android Customers

Expected to be available on Android devices in the first quarter, OpenFeint's Game Channel product will be a new service for users of AT&T Android devices to discover new games, get social deals and connect with other gamers. AT&T and OpenFeint are working together to make it easier for developers to create socially connected games by enabling the world's largest cross platform social gaming network which currently has over 15,000 mobile game developers.

Android users will have access to social promotions on high quality games and virtual goods as well as customization of their OpenFeint user profile. Cross platform social gaming features will include:

-- Gamer Profiles - for users to set up a gamer identity with a custom profile image.

-- Friending - for users to create friendships around social games.

-- Facebook Connect - for users to find their friends on the OpenFeint network by connecting to Facebook.

-- Leaderboards - for users to see how their scores compare against their friends' scores, regardless of the phones used.

-- Achievements - for users to earn special recognition and points for completing challenging game tasks.

"We're thrilled to work with AT&T to bring cross platform social gaming to their users," says Jason Citron, CEO of OpenFeint. "With a greatly expanded player audience, this is also great news for Android developers looking to sell games."

Available soon in the Android Market, customers will see OpenFeint's Game Channel on new AT&T Android devices in the coming months. Android customers will be able to download via the Android Market when available. Users will be taken to Android Market to purchase games.

OpenFeint is the largest cross platform mobile social gaming ecosystem with over 65 million registered users. Launched just 21 months ago, OpenFeint has a community of 15,000 developers who have launched over 4,500 games.

Developers interested in having their games available to AT&T customers will need to integrate the OpenFeint Android SDK. More information is available at developer.att.com/gaming
