Games company Isotx is downright proud – and a little emotional – to announce the release of CrosuS, the brand new Game Management System for the PC.
CrosuS is a new tool which finds the latest content and updates for all of your favourite PC games from the latest blockbusters to old-school classics – and delivers it straight to your desktop. CrosuS brings the best mods, maps, tools, news, reviews, videos, tournaments and competitions together and lets YOU control how you play and enjoy your PC games.
CrosuS works with a rapidly growing number of titles. It even supports the leading online game retail channels, including Steam and Xfire, to make sure it provides the widest possible support for the world's best games.
CrosuS started life as a 'mod jukebox', created by the development team at Isotx when they were working on their first game. Patrick Flanagan, the CrosuS project manager explains, “We realized that hunting for new mods, installing them and getting them to work was eating into the time we could spend actually playing – and decided there HAD to be a better way.”
CrosuS scans your hard drive to find installed games - then delivers a list of the latest online mods, maps and tools. You can install and play them direct from the CrosuS client in only a couple of clicks.
You can also find the latest news and reviews for your favourite games, leave your own opinions on the mods and updates, chat with other gamers using the integrated IRC client and use CrosuS to find other players and organise competitions and tournaments.
Even better – you decide which games CrosuS supports. Gamers can tell Isotx which games they want to see – or actually upload their own content. From old school arcade titles and
“CrosuS is much, much more than just a retail channel,” says Byron Rupp, the head of Isotx. “It brings together all of the latest information and updates and puts it right at the gamer's fingertips. It makes finding and playing new content as simple as possible, it puts the gamer right at the heart of everything on their PC.”
CrosuS also gives game developers and modders a new way to reach players. CrosuS allows developers to take their games direct to players and can even help the development process with secure groups for beta testers and limited access groups for paying customers.
“We want to make CrosuS an indispensable part of every PC user's life,” says Patrick. “No matter what type of games they play – from the most dedicated hardcore gamer through to casual players and people who use their PC for general entertainment and media - we plan to have something in there for everyone. CrosuS makes it simple to get the very most out of your PC and spend your time doing the fun stuff instead of the searching, installing and troubleshooting.”
