-<p>One of the goals of <a href="https://developers.google.com/games/">Google
-Play game services</a> is to allow developers to focus on what they’re good at
-as game developers &mdash; creating great gaming experiences for their users, by
-building on top of what Google is good at: mobile and cloud services. Integral
-to that is an easy integration process, one that provides a whole host of
-features with little engineering work required.</p>
-
-<p>The gaming studios below understood the opportunity that Google Play game
-services unlocked, and are starting to see real results following their
-successful integrations. </p>

-
-<p>"The Google Play game services were straightforward and easy to implement. We

-services came out, it was an easy decision for us. Not only were they easy to

-
-<p>"PBA Bowling Challenge now has real-time multiplayer which our users instantly
-were thrilled with; you can see in the reviews how people immediately raved about
-the new game experience. </p>
-
-<p>"We also included achievements, leaderboards, and most recently cloud
-synchronization from the Google Play game services as well. Using the game
-services in PBA Bowling Challenge was a huge success, enough so that we are now
-going back to our other titles, adding the features to them as well."</p>

-<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;">Glu was one of the first developers
-to integrate Google Play game services, with
-<a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.glu.ewarriors2">Eternity
-Warriors 2</a>. Based on this first success, Glu has integrated game services
-into several more games, including Samurai vs. Zombies 2, Frontline Commando:
-D-Day, Contract Killer 2, and Zombies Ate My Friends.</p>
-
-<p>Already supported in Eternity Warriors 2, they’ve seen a 40% increase in 7-day
-user retention and a 20% increase in play sessions per day. Sourabh Ahuja, Glu's
-Vice President of Android Development, explains:</p>
-
-<p>“Multiplayer, leaderboards, achievements &mdash; these are all things that we
-had to build individually for our titles. The availability of these features in
-Google Play game services helps us make our games stickier, and it’s awesome that
-it comes directly from Google. </p>
-
-<p>"It’s flexible enough that we were able to make it interoperable with our
-in-house systems. We look forward to utilizing game services extensively across
-our portfolio."</p>

-
-<p>Ralf Knoesel, CTO of Vector Unit, tells more about how they've used Google Play game
-services:</p>
-
-<p>“We wanted to provide a really compelling multiplayer experience for our users, and
-Google Play game services allowed us to do just that. With multiplayer, you can show off
-your skills and your custom-tuned hydro jet in 4-way online battles with friends and
-players around the world. </p>
-
-<p>"By providing an easy way to power this multiplayer experience, we were able to focus
-on making the gameplay come alive &mdash; like the stunts, which are more daring and
-slicker than ever (with more of them to master), or the realistic detail of the water
-splashing against the camera lens.”</p>
