GTechG2, the Lottomatica subsidiary that develops internet gambling software and includes Boss Media, Dynamite Idea, Finsoft and St Minver, is one of the star performers in the second quarter 2010 results just released by the parent group. First-half 2010 revenue contributions from GTech G2 were approximately €36.7 million, up 6.5% versus the prior year.

Gaming VC's online casino operation at Casino Club has announced the arrival of three new Boss Media-developed games this week. The line-up comprises two video slots - Crazy Wizard and Twenty Seven - and a new video poker game branded Cash Climb.

Further details are emerging on the recent shock news that Gaming VC has commenced litigation in Malta seeking damages from Boss Media and parent GTechG2, and it appears that a question of Italian licensing is a key element in the dispute between the companies.

One of the Internet gambling industry's most respected pioneer software companies, Boss Media, was this week awarded the eCOGRA software certification following a rigorous on-site review. The firm, which is now part of the GTechG2 group along with sister companies Finsoft, Dynamite Idea and St Minver, was started in 1996 by entrepreneur Joel Wikell in Växjö, Sweden and historically has experience in both the operational and software provider sectors, although it is now focused on the latter.

It's been a busy week for online poker software developers, it seems. Following the release of Playtech's latest v.9.6 software, GTechG2 has launched an upgrade as well. GTechG2, whose corporate stable includes Boss Media, Finsoft, Dynamite Idea and St Minver, has announced the release of version 7.3 of its online poker software, which gives players on its International Poker Network more choice at the table and added convenience at the cashier.

Gaming VC's online casino subsidiary Casino Club has added seven new instant-play games derived from popular and well established Boss Media offerings to its inventory. Slots Lucky's Diner, Roman Empire and Maya Gold are now available in no download format, along with Bonus Poker, Showdown Poker, 100 Reel Bonus Slot Track Day and Triple Chance Hi Lo.
