I don't pretend to know the best way of doing this.
What you could do is run the main game server software as an
application client running on the server side. Most of the logic might
be in session beans, but the application client would be free to check
the system for messages and use whatever means it finds convenient to
sent events to the end user applications. End user applications could
either work straight towards the EJBs and just let the game server
provide events or it could communicate directly with the game server
which would then be acting as a proxy between the end user application
and the EJBs.
