New Bet On Gamer service for Xbox and PS2If tracking your rankings on Microsoft’s Xbox Live service isn’t doing it for you, you can now up the stakes at the Under Ground X-Change, a Web-based service that matches Xbox and PS2 players who want to bet on the outcome of their own matches. [Via press release. And follow this link if you don’t get the headline reference.] UGX servers will match players in a variety of games, and even adds a way to distribute winnings among members of a team. What it doesn’t seem to do is allow spectators to bet on the outcome of matches. That’s something that would drive pro gaming in this country in a much bigger way.
