Well, yes, we are happy about this, but zOMG! is the name of the MMO, not an expression of our excitement. Vivox, the company that provides voice chat in quite a few of our favorite games, has added one more to their list. They've partnered with Gaia Online to provide in game voice chat for zOMG!, their free-to-play browser based MMO.
"Gaia Online has defined the social web experience for millions of teens and young adults," said Rob Seaver, CEO of Vivox. "And voice is the ultimate social glue. By adding voice chat to zOMG!, Gaia Online proves, again, its commitment to providing a truly social experience for its players."
Vivox voice chat is live in zOMG! now for players to "gab to your heart's content using the power of your own face-hole, saving valuable keystrokes for more efficient monster bashing," according to the zOMG! monthly newsletter. True to form, zOMG! has added their own twist on it as well: players can purchase voice fonts in the storefront to give their voice a unique twist. Congratulations to Gaia Online and Vivox for their partnership!

Yep, now instead of looking at that 14 year old spamming 'lolololololololol' across your screen, you can actually hear him saying it as well.

You know, I was tempted to say the very same thing when I saw this get posted, but I didn't feel like bothering with it.
But yeah, nothin like hearing the same whiny voices of 14yr olds in CoD or Halo, but now you get to hear them AND listen to them boastin about how they spent 50$ on voice shit.
