So far 3 Australia; 3 Austria; 3 Hong Kong; Smartone Vodafone Hong Kong; PCCW Sunday Hong Kong and Telstra are all live carriers cumulatively generating over 1.4 million paid for multiplayer game sessions.

In addition to real-time multiplayer, the Viva La Mobile Redstar platform allows payment flexibility with pay per play billing, free play and subscription models. It also offers chat, high scores, international leader-boards and tournaments under its mobile games championship(MGC) brand with carrier grade servers hosted in several locations worldwide reducing the integration required for carriers and eliminating any cost on behalf of carriers.

Orange Israel will be Telcogames' first customer to launch Viva's multiplayer games in September.

Other single and multiplayer titles Viva has created include Rubiks Cubed, Aqua Dig and Fire Frenzy amongst others.

Jamie Conyngham, CEO Telcogames said "The Viva acquisition allows us to continue offering our clients the latest advances in mobile games.
