Port 80 redirect for own domain - which service?

Any reliable companies?

Dyn.com and No-IP offer what I need.

Which is better?

Hi Guys.

Sorry for the vague question, I was not sure how to word what I needed.

The pages below best advise what is needed:

http://dyn.com/support/webhops-and-redirections/#ports

We have different games servers and services hosted externally and I want to remove the port from the IP address and simplify it, so:

game.myserver.com redirects to 81.456.563.56:8565, if that makes sense?

Obviously, I cannot host them all on port 80.

I can then create a subdomain for each service keeping it tidy.

game.myserver.com would be port 80, this will redirect to the correct IP address with port.

It will, but is that the default server port for the game anyway? As in, the client will look on that port if one is not specified?

We are with a GSP at this moment so are not able to change ports to defaults.
