Play to learn

Electronic Arts has announced that its casual game portal subsidiary Pogo is moving rapidly to expand across Europe, with a new German language service, new reward services for UK users, and a French language version expected in the coming months.

As of today, European casual gamers can log on to Pogo to play the developer’s selection of single and multiplayer puzzle, word, casino, card, and board games for their respective regions.

UK players also now have the option to participate in reward programs to win real world prizes including MP3 players and vouchers from the online games.

A French language version of Pogo has been slated to appear in a matter of months, according to EA’s press release. by Brandon Boyer

Certainly not the primary way to learn a language but I myself use gaming servers in various language and you do pick up words.
