Google I/O is like heaven for developers. Just today at the opening keynote, Google introduced Google Play game services, a set of services that aims to make games more social, with achievements, leaderboards, and multiplayer, as well as more powerful, storing game saves and settings in the cloud. Google says that Google Play game services will be a core part of building a gaming platform for the next generation of games.
