Games Room

The Games Room Interactive Activity Center offers a truly unique reward system and an intuitive interface for subscribers of interactive services. Games Room members earn Games Room Credits (GRCs) by using the products and services available from the room. Credits

are used to purchase goods to decorate their room and own virtual pets that need daily care.

A subscriber can earn credits playing games on television and spend those credits decorating their rooms either on TV or through the Internet. Rooms decorated on the Internet will be seen the next time the Games Room is activated on TV and vice versa. This feature represents a truly unique opportunity for driving traffic back and forth between the iTV service and the Internet and is of particular interest to broadcasters who also offer Internet services.

Games Room accessorizing represents a unique interactive television experience and a tremendous value for subscribers. Combined with Joule's Lobby Server, networked, community-based promotional events can originate from this room further enhancing its appeal and viewer value.
