The Website expected more revenue and online traffic with the convergence of games and the online communities, said Luo Chuan, chief executive of Myspace.cn.

MySpace.cn has about 4 million registered users in China, compared with almost 300 million globally.

MySpace is not profitable in China, and the increased volume of game users will bring the Website traffic and then revenue, such as advertising income, Luo said.

"We used to think the community was a priority but we now think that the community and games are equal," said Steve Pearman, MySpace's senior vice president of product strategy.
