Gamers can now securely trade Wii, PS3 and Xbox360 games for a fraction of the retail cost

SaySwap, the first video game social network that allows users to trade for new games at a small fraction of the retail or used cost, has partnered with casual games portal and developer Teagames, a wholly-owned subsidiary of FUN Technologies, to launch a co-branded version of the SaySwap platform. The platform launched today at Teagames.com.

SaySwap will power a comprehensive social video game shopping, trading and socializing platform for Teagames, one of the largest flash videogame properties in the world, with over four million monthly unique visitors worldwide (according to comScore Media Metrix, July '07). Teagames will leverage the SaySwap platform to facilitate video game trades for its members through a combination of trading tokens and purchase points (a virtual currency for each game).

Through the deal, SaySwap will provide a completely customized platform that enables Teagames users to create their own profile pages with the ability to create game trading lists (including all PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii titles). In addition, the SaySwap solution allows Teagames members to bypass the negotiation phase, since all games have a predefined value.

'"Our white label solution is a huge boon to any video game or social networking community looking to add value to its users,' said Mark Elfenbein, founder of SaySwap. '"With the cost of console video games ballooning to over $60 per game, we are pleased to offer a much more affordable solution.'

According to July 2007 U.S. comScore data, SaySwap.com is the largest social media trading community in the USA.
