Web + Television = Ginx
Sunday, 25. May 2008, 08:56:54
It's 2008, and I'm no longer surprised to see Web, television and print going together hand in hand like old friends. I mean, is there a television channel that doesn't have a website by now? On the other hand, I don't think I've heard of a website that has its own TV channel. Until now. Meet ginx.eu, the latest big thing from DIFFstudios:

(Disclaimer: I'm a consultant at DIFFstudios, but I'm in no way affiliated with this project. Heck, I'm not even a gamer.)
I can't say much about Ginx right now, especially as everything is still under heavy development, even the concept. One thing is certain: it's all video, and it's all about games. Reviews, teasers, trailers... you name it. I believe televised gaming sessions are coming soon, along with a blog, forum and all the usual stuff (hey, we don't want to be that different). And yes, you can see it on cable, too, at least in Romania. Don't know about other countries, but if it's not already there, it will be.
I didn't initially believed in Ginx, and I still have my doubts. Being there, though, in the office with all the guys and girls I couldn't possibly miss the passion that's been invested in this stuff. From the cutting-edge technology of the infrastructure (have you seen how fast it loads?) to the rich, warm graphics Ginx is a labor of love. It even managed to turn a few heads at Cannes this year, I gather, and that is telling.
Enjoy!
P.S. It's the 25th of May. Do you know where your towel is?
