Future US Launches FileRadar, The Next Generation Site For Game Files
Community-empowered site enables users to submit best and fastest game file links
South San Francisco, CA (August 15, 2007) – Future US, Inc., the leading publisher of cutting-edge special interest magazines and websites, has launched FileRadar.net, the first evolved game files site created for gamers and powered by the community, it was announced today by company president Jonathan Simpson-Bint.
FileRadar.net takes the power of a site like Digg and applies it to the most essential part of games either being played or wanted to play: the download. Only FileRadar umbrellas all download sites while empowering the community to tell each other not only which are the best files to get, but what are the fastest and easiest places to get them. With a thriving community of informed gamers all networked together to either be the first to play test a hot new game or enhance the games they already love, gamers can’t go wrong
Users’ link contributions, ranking and commentary make FileRadar the best place to get game files fast and free. If a user thinks a game file is essential, they “Blip” it by submitting the link. The more Blips a file gets, the higher it will rank. Links with better ratings appear higher on FileRadar and let gamers get the files they need faster, easier, and safer.
FileRadar puts gamers directly in charge of one of the most powerful sites on the Net. For example, once Microsoft puts out a “Halo 3” PC demo, every one of their download servers will either be full or seriously lagging trying to get it to millions. On FileRadar, they can find or post alternative sources for that desired file. When Blizzard releases a new patch for “World of Warcraft” and their download manager sputters out yet again, FileRadar will be the place to find links to it. And whenever an ambitious modding team composes a “Half-Life 2” mod that will revitalize the game in ways you never thought possible, FileRadar is the place to find it.
Users can then share their experience: Hey, did that patch improve gameplay, or did it break the save games again? Millions of users will have each other to thank. Was the demo over before it started? Save others the time and teach publishers a lesson. Was that mod better than the actual game? Take the developers to school!
