Party Gammon- review

The backgammon scene is becoming one of the most crowded online gaming scenes lately. Seems like all the backgammon players have moved from offline to online backgammon on the last couple of years. Now the big gambling online companies finally realized that and they want to take a part of this online backgammon revolution. Some of those companies are already providing backgammon servers and I think that this move is going to make the online backgammon scene is even hotter then it is today.

The new "party gaming" 3D backgammon software, Party Gammon, is one of those backgammon new servers. The interface is good and it follows the big, already succeeding backgammon servers. A great job was done by Party Gammon with the interface and it is good as every other online backgammon software available today. The sounds, the looks and the usability are very good and so is the rating system although there is a lack of unique rating for new players - it could be a big problem if a new good player has a rating equal to a long term bad backgammon player.

They are on the poker now... - the party gammon lobby:

Party Gammon's backgammon is a very good backgammon and I think that Party Gammon's developers had made a big effort.

There is one major problem, though, with the size and the population of the Party Gammon's backgammon community. Maybe the backgammon online players are addicted to the softwares they are already using and they are not easily changing their playing habits.
to my point of view, The most important thing when using a backgammon software is a big community (big community is containing at least a few thousands players at the time), that will help the player choose an opponent on with an equal rating without the need to wait for a free player who wants to play at the same time with him. I think that Party Gammon's biggest problem is that they are "thinking poker". The poker's communities are bigger then the backgammon's communities and the poker players don't come to play a game, they come to make some money. Party Gammon, so it looks, are moving players from their poker system to the backgammon and well, maybe it's not the right place to take people from to the very different backgammon world.

I tried to use the Party Gammon backgammon; less then a hundred players were there. When you wan to play and those are all the available opponents, you can wait for a long time even if you agree to play against someone with a different rating.

The backgammon system provided by Party Gammon is good but it has no advantages over any online existing backgammon game. In the future, Maybe the population will grow and the waiting will be shorter but for now I can't see any reason to replace my GammonEmpire backgammon.
