MSN Gaming Zone Site Overview:

MSN Gaming Zone combines online games, downloads, and cash prize games into 1 location and part of the broader MSN Network. Game genres include puzzle, arcade & sports, word & trivia, pop culture, and casino. Some of the popular downloadable games, like Bejeweled, have been thematically combined with corporate branding to create new games (like Tyson chicken Bejeweled 2).

The online games section at MSN Gaming Zone is large and diverse. Although not as striking a selection as Pogo’s, the games load faster and have less advertisements. A software download is required to play online games. Titles include many of the popular puzzle games and unique titles from companies like LEGO.

For those who want to play games for cash prizes, Gaming Zone has about 20 such titles, mostly from the puzzle genre. You can start out with free amount of money in your account but once that is gone, you have to pay to keep playing to win.

Bottom Line:

MSN Gaming Zone has a good selection of titles but what holds it back from being a top notch site is its average layout. Game pages don’t provide much info about the games and the navigation is not the easiest to use. The site has alot of banner advertising which distracts from the content. It’s an OK site, just not the best.
