GoPets Going Strong

Virtual pets are getting a remarkable amount of attention these days. While you've likely heard of Nintendogs, the recently released pet simulator for the Nintendo DS, there is also a rapidly growing PC game now available in North America which allows you to customize a 3D pet and even meet other people's pets online. GoPets now has over 100,000 users worldwide, and shows no signs of slowing down. Premium subscriptions are sold to support the game, but the basic service and software can be had free of charge.
