An interactive game broadcasting system comprises an entertainment server 230 employing a bearer gateway 232 and a game engine 262, a show director server 244 connected to the entertainment server, and a broadcasted video output interface unit (not shown). The entertainment server 230 receives and sends messages, e.g. SMS, e-mail, through at least two bearer communications systems 234, 235, 236, and manages player responses (i.e. received messages), with the show director server merging the player responses in a broadcasted video. The broadcasted video output interface unit (not shown) may be linked to a TV broadcasting switch 246, 250 or to a large screen display system 274, and the entertainment server may be linked to a back office 260 which controls any wagering incorporated in the broadcasted game. The show director server may have at least one operator interface unit 252, 254, which may be a remote unit 254 linked to the entertainment server through the bearer gateway 232, through which an operator controls features and content of the broadcasted game. |
