This is the second post of three part series reviewing some game servers. You can find the first post here: After I’m Done Using the Computer I Like to Relax and Use the Computer

When my days of playing Half Life ended, I turned into an even more computerized geek, and started playing on Microsoft’s Flight Simulator. I was taking pilot lessons at the time so it had some practical value as well. When I first started playing, I found a few others that would want to join me online, but the only way we could communicate was by hosting a Teamspeak server. Putting my old PC to work again, bandwidth killer once again landed on my lap. It was time to have someone else host the burden.

Reviewing the services again by guys at Game Data again, they are the ones that host Counter Strike as mentioned in my previous post, you can find that they also do Teamspeak Servers, and Ventrilo Server Hosting. Continue reading »

It’s not always business as usual, and believe it or not many people have fun online. This brings me to the topic of gaming servers. UGT Servers offers Ventrilo and Teamspeak servers. Stop hogging your own bandwidth by hosting a Teamspeak channel, and have your friends share a low cost server designed just for you. A Ventrilo Server is very inexpensive.

UGT Severs has a fairly broad global presence so speed and connectivity issues should not be problem. Here is a listing of country locations, Ventrilo Hosting. They offer aggressive pricing, as low as $2.69 a month for ten people, and can support as many as 100 persons. Servers are web based controlled, and are easy to manage. They even have flash tutorials to help you along if you are new to this kind of stuff. There is no limitations to bandwidth besides the number of persons using it, and once you are up and running you can kiss could bye to dogging your own computer.

I admit, I used to be one of those gaming fanatics, and I even hosted my own Teamspeak server. The server was really my pc, and in fact it was the PC I played the games on. That is a drag, and I just wished there was a service like this when I played a lot. Want to start a gaming community? Support it with a Ventrilo Server, and make everyone know about it on your site.
