Comcast (Nasdaq: CMCSA, CMCSK), the nation's leading provider of cable, entertainment and communications products and services, today announced the national launch of GameInvasion.net(TM) - an online site offering a rich entertainment experience for hardcore gaming enthusiasts. 

Comcast has signed an agreement with Major League Gaming (MLG), the world's first professional video game league, to distribute MLG's television show, MLG Pro Circuit, on GameInvasion.net and on Comcast's signature ON DEMAND service. GameInvasion.net will also feature exclusive interviews and tips from the Frag Dolls, a team of professional female gamers recruited by Ubisoft to promote multiplayer competition and women in games, as well as videos, news and reviews from G4 Television, GameTrailers.com and IGN.
