Sega Enters the Market on Online Gaming

Monday, February 15th, 2010

Sega Gaming has purchased a set of branded online casino games from CTXM, a casino game developer from Latvia. The site is already using the Playtech platform and the full suite of online casino games which come as standard with any new licensee to the popular brand.

Everyone remembers Sega– the games, the fun and the competitions. It was a great time with Sega games and now the company is moring into development of new games based on their old, yet popular brands. Some games have already been brought to the online market by Playtech, but now Sega is doing the job themselves! Sega Casino just announced that it will have traditional games in addition to video slots built around their slots. It has been annouced that the company has developed a video slot called, “House of the Dead” that’s based on a video game which was later made into a film. CEO of CTXM Udy Yosha said, “We are very proud to work with the founders of the gaming industry. Being a game developer ourselves, we believe that together with SEGA Games’ unique IP, we will be able to add another dimension to their online games. We feel privileged to cooperate with SEGA Games.”

Now that the US is looking into legalizing and regulating online gaming, many other developers are trying to find their ways into the market. There are millions of dollars to be had and every one of the companies wants a piece of the pie. The move by Sega to enter the market is a wise one. Not only are they entering the market that has no clear monopoly and giving them a chance to win over a strong market share, but they are also capitalizing on games that have already proven themselves.  The Sega brand is widely known and has a good core base of followers who most likely will want to venture into the online form of the game and, at minimum, see what it is about. Sega is in a great position to enter the market and make a name for itself by using its own brands to promote how good a development company it really is.

SEGA Announces New Gambling Websites

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

Everyone knows the name SEGA as a gaming company. It is a forerunner in the field of video gaming but now the company is moving into the world of online gambling. The company SEGAGames Limited just announced their new gaming websites: SEGACasino.com and SEGAPoker.com.  The SEGACasino has a wide variety of games to enjoy—from blackjack and roulette to slots and video poker. The popular gaming company is in the premiere position to move into the gambling market. The online gambling market has grown exponentially throughout the past few years. Although the recession caused many industries to suffer, online gambling isn’t one of them. It has flourished despite market climate and continued to grow. It is estimated online gambling generated $21 billion worldwide in 2008 alone. It’s a market that has continued to skyrocket as the years have gone by and is showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon. Now that gambling is on the brink of legalization and regulation, it’s possible the hobby will gain even more notoriety throughout the world in 2010.

The SETAPoker.com is an especially interesting product. The company is offering a live multi-player poker room with head-to-head play that can sustain up to 30,000 concurrent players. The SEGACasino and SEGAPoker websites will be the initial sites the company is creating. They will offer real payouts and payout potentials to anyone playing who manages to get lucky. Players can now enjoy the SEGA experience at the poker tables and in the casino room.

The SEGAGames Ltd was developed and created in collaboration with PlayTech. Anyone who is an online gamer knows the PlayTech name and understands how good a company PlayTech is and most likely will affiliate the name with great gaming. The websites will offer unique promotion based on the SEGA name. A press release on the company read: “SEGA has been a trusted brand and a favorite among the gaming industry for over half a century. It is our goal to translate these attributes to offer a leading online casino and online poker room. We want to give our SEGACasino and SEGAPoker players every opportunity to participate in the entire SEGA experience.”
