British
digital data distributor Tornado Group Plc said
on Monday it would take part in digital distribution
trials for games made by British computer games
maker Eidos Plc. The two companies will work with
retailers to protect intellectual property and
branding without affecting flexibility and ease
of use for game players, Tornado said in a statement.
Eidos,
famous for its Tomb Raider heroine Lara Croft,
is the latest games software maker Tornado has
brought into play as it seeks to take a lead in
the downloadable games market. Tornado has recently
announced digital distribution trials with other
key games makers such as Electronic Arts , Rage
Software,, Midas Interactive and GSP as well as
EMI and Virgin for downloading music.
