Peer 1 Supports Gaming Site
 
May 10, 2006 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Online gaming community Spawnpoint (spawnpoint.com) said on Tuesday it has earned the loyalty of thousands of gamers since launching its Web site three months ago, with more than 200,000 unique visitors and a growth of more than 30 percent every month.

   
DataPipe’s high-value managed global IT services help thousands of businesses decrease CAPEX, OPEX, & risk while increasing overall service levels. Partner with DataPipe – Improve your ROI - Extend your IT resources

 
Launched in February 2006, Spawnpoint was created by Shane Robinett of PHXX Networks (phxxllc.com) in partnership with Web hosting provier Peer 1 Network (peer1.net). With Peer 1's high performance network and dedicated service offerings, and PHXX's technical and gaming savvy, the project is geared toward delivering the latest in gaming downloads, news and technology, with the best network possible. Some of the games supported by the open community of over 300 gaming servers include Counter-Strike: Source, Day of Defeat and Half-Life.
 
"Unlike similar sites, we don't put a limit on how much you can download," says Robinett. "With the Peer 1 Rapid Edge content delivery network, we can support multiple people downloading movie files as large as 1000 Megs without annoying interruptions. We're here to give gamers what they want when they want it. Capping usage goes against that philosophy. Everything we do is focused on making the gaming experience the best that it can be with unrestricted access to community, competition and content."
 
The community is powered by Peer 1's Rapid Edge Content Delivery Network that enables fast downloads of huge files consistently delivered at over 1 megabyte per second to broadband users.
