Sometime soon either in late 2007 or early 2008 you will be able to play your favorite Cartoon Network flash games online via your next generation console thanks to the program currently being created called "MEGA Series". The MEGA Series is a custom application accessible through a console browser and a PC browser. So once it's built you will be able to play your favorite flash games on your PS3, Wii, or XBOX 360.

Cartoon Network is expanding its games distribution to next-gen videogame consoles through an new browser application developed at AFI's Digital Content Lab. Launching in late 2007 to early 2008, the new multi-platform window called "MEGA Series" delivers an interactive video and gaming experience to PS3, X360 and Wii.

Compatible with PS3 and Wii, MEGA Series may be delivered via the broadband connection of each console and is accessible through the device's Internet browser, which both use custom Flash players from Adobe. MEGA Series programming will be based on Cartoon Network and Adult Swim shows. MEGA Series content is designed to be played simultaneously with streaming video and delivered episodically over time, providing a real-time immersive experience for fans.

"Developing applications like MEGA Series is an important complement to our existing online and mobile businesses and a part of Cartoon Network's digital growth strategy," said Paul Condolora, senior vice president and general manager of Cartoon Network New Media. "Not only does MEGA Series extend our reach, but more importantly provides an opportunity to offer a unique content and user experience for our audience."

    Hmmm, sounds cool. Almost like a knock-off of the Virtual Console for the Wii. Nonetheless, I will still be using this often to play some of those games. ~_^

    Not bad. This should hopefully bring the PS3 sales up.

    I don't think I have played any Cartoon Network flash games, but it looks to be a good update for the consoles.

    It won't just bring PS3 sales up, but hopefully all of the sales. It all comes down to cost at the end of the day.
