 | | This morning, AOL announced the acquisition of The ImagiNation Network (INN) from ATandT. |
 | | The ImagiNation Network, the developer of multiplayer games like Red Baron on Sierra Online, will continue development of CyberPark, a gaming area on the Internet, as well as launching new offerings on AOL's proprietary system. |
 | | Multi-player games take advantage of the interactive spirit of networked computers---taking players out from the solitary confines of dimly-lit offices, rulebooks, boxed software packages, midnight doughnut runs, and competition against Hal, the supercomptuer, and dropping them into a dynamic environment of global communication, competition, and doughnuts at midnight. |
