NovaLogic, Inc. is delighted to announce that the groundbreaking new multiplayer FPS title Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising has set a new world record for simultaneous players in an online FPS game.

On Saturday June 26th, 160 players from around the U.S. connected to the iGames World Record server and played in a single game of Joint Operations. This World Record event is the kick-off of the Official Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising Tour presented by ATI and sponsored by Sapphire. More Joint Operations world record attempts are planned over the summer.

Twin Galaxies' Official Video Game & Pinball Book of World Records recognizes 160 participants playing Joint Operations on the same server as a new world record. Twin Galaxies considers iGames.org and NovaLogic to be pioneers in the gaming arena, and this accomplishment will appear in a section of the book that focuses on significant milestones that mark the technological and sociological evolution of electronic gaming.
