by Kit

Thursday, May 6 2004

Playing PC games on your TV has been made a bit easier.

Digital Interactive Systems Corporation (DISC), creator of the DISCover Game Consoles, announced today that it will be an exhibitor at this year’s E3, May 12-14 in Los Angeles, CA, where it will feature new partners and showcase the ApeXtreme Game Console from Apex Digital, Inc.. DISCover will be located in the South Hall, Booth 600 at the Los Angeles Convention Center.

The DISCover booth in South Hall will feature, in addition to Apex Digital’s ApeXtreme, a first-look at prototypes of the upcoming next-generation DISCover consoles from Alienware, ABS, Onkyo, TEAC and others. Visitors can experience what playing the latest PC games on a home television can be like when played on a DISCover console on state-of-the-art Apex LCD and Sharp Aquos televisions.

Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising, the new FPS from NovaLogic, will be playable on the DISCover.

Guests can even play EA’s Tiger Woods or MS Links to practice their golf swing on DISCover’s private putting green with the QMotions-Golf Indoor Golf Simulator connected to a DISCover Console.

DISCover’s Drop & Play technology works on the Windows XP's Embedded operating system to automatically transform unmodified PC games into DISCover console games.

The ApeXtreme, which debuted at this year’s CES and won Best of Show accolades from Tech TV has since added more powerful hardware and PVR capabilities and will be available to consumers late this summer with a suggested retail price of $499.
