RBL or anyone know about this?
Looks like Pseudo put it on the wire and they aren't a public company.
BTW ELBO's chart is starting to look healthy. It appears to undergoing orderly accumulation.
Best Regards,

Pseudo's All Games Network Signs Comprehensive Marketing and E-Commerce Agreement with EBWorld.com
- World's Largest Video and Computer Gaming TV Network Links Up with Largest Net Gaming Retailer -
Will Feature First-Ever Searchable Internet TV Holiday Buying Guide to Allow Gamers to See and Learn From Game Reviews At Point of Sale
NEW YORK, Dec. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Pseudo Programs, Inc. -- the world's largest producer of original Internet TV -- and its All Games Network (AGN) allgames.com, the leading Internet TV site for computer gaming, has entered into a comprehensive marketing and e-commerce agreement with leading online software retailer EBWorld.com (http://www.ebworld.com), the Internet division of Electronics Boutique (Nasdaq: ELBO - news). Under the terms of the agreement, Pseudo and EBWorld will develop a co-branded computer gaming store on EBWorld.com's site that will feature AGN's original computer gaming shows, as well as a special searchable Internet TV holiday buyers guide, to create a rich, compelling Internet retail environment.

''Pseudo's original programming adds a compelling entertainment element to the e-commerce experience, and we consider EBWorld.com to be a perfect partner,'' said Anthony Asnes, CEO of Pseudo Programs, Inc. ''AGN programming will be at the point of purchase to compliment EBWorld's well-known product knowledge, their in-depth product offerings and their dedication to getting the hottest game titles. Together, we'll give consumers a chance to get honest descriptions of games -- and a chance to see them in action -- before making a purchase.

The alliance also includes numerous cross-promotions between AGN and EBWorld.com, such as product and gift certificate giveaways, insertion of AGN video game product reviews in the EB newsletter, as well as the disbursement of AGN promotional materials to be included in the bags of all EBWorld purchased items.

''This partnership provides the EBWorld.com customer with easy access to AGN's unique and exciting game content'', said Seth Levy, President of EBWorld.com. ''Our goal, as the leader in game commerce, is to enhance the online shopping adventure and ensure our customers make the most informed purchase while enjoying the experience.''

The Buyer's Guide, located at allgames.com, provides enthusiasts and novice gamers with gameplay footage of AGN's top picks for this holiday season. The games are divided into specific genres, including action, role-playing and sport-themed games, with a special section for non-violent, family-friendly titles. All titles can be viewed via an intuitive video search engine interface, designed by Virage, the recognized market leader in interactive video search products and application services, that lets consumers view game reviews by title, keyword or genre. Viewers interested in purchasing AGN's recommended titles can use a link to EBWorld.com, the leading online game retailer, conveniently located in the video interface.

''It is easy to be overwhelmed by the volumes of games on store shelves,'' said Scot Rubin founder of the All Games Network. ''To ease the burden, we tried every major title and compiled the only Buyer's Guide that allows consumers to see the games in action. And then, we allow consumers who find the titles they want to buy them from EBWorld.com.''

AGN experts have combed the list of new releases to give in-depth looks into every aspect of the games including gameplay, graphics, controls, audio and multi-player capabilities.
