Wizards of the Coast Opens Gaming Portal, Gleemax Hits Alpha

The new Wizards of The Coast online initiative "Gleemax" has entered Alpha. For those of you who aren't familiar with Gleemax, think MySpace for gamers. Gleemax is trying to bridge the gap between the pen & paper and table top gamer with the online gamer. They will be doing things like bringing all the Avalon Hills board games online, as well as several custom made games just for online play, and of course, Gleemax will play a large role in Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition.

You can sign up for the Alpha at the Gleemax site.

You can read more about Gleemax and what they hope to do in Our Interview with Gleemax at PAX.
