Bitmob and Goozex ink Deal

August 3, 2010

Videogame and movie trading portal Goozex announced that it has partnered with Bitmob to give fans an outlet for trading their old games and entertainment. Screams could be heard at multiple publishing headquarters in California.. The deal will see Bitmob's content on the Goozex portal and the company's trading technology injected into the Bitmob community.

The Goozex trading service, for those not familiar with it, is a proprietary peer-to-peer technology that connects members in the U.S. to trade their video games and movies using virtual currency. Goozex users trade their items and use the virtual currency earned to get many more items for only $1 each. Membership to Goozex is free.

Dan "Shoe" Hsu, co-founder of Bitmob.com, commented on the partnership in a press release today: "We're very excited to be partnering up with Goozex. They're pros at what they do, and with our strong community at Bitmob, we knew it'd be a great fit. Our users already discuss and analyze games with each other; trading is just the next logical step. Plus...Goozex has a pretty kick-ass (and weird!) name that we are strangely drawn to."

Imautobot: Maybe there really is something to be said about selling a game at a fair price.06/19/2013 - 8:35am
MechaTama31: Imautobot: I dunno. Ask my hundreds-strong Steam library, which I have played maybe 10-20% of. Those sales are just too good to pass up... >.>06/19/2013 - 7:38am
Imautobot: Bought 5 GOG games last night, now I wonder if I'll play them. Why is it so comforting to know we have it, and yet such a challenge to bring ourselves to play it?06/19/2013 - 7:28am

Andrew Eisen: Sleaker - Fixed.06/18/2013 - 6:34pm
MechaTama31: CMiner: Another issue is that every camera/webcam combination is going to be pretty different, in terms of the software/hardware exploits available. A homogenous hardware/software combo like a console, in millions of homes, will be a much juicier target.06/18/2013 - 6:31pm
