Midas uses E3 to showcase strongest ever line-up
April 2006
Midas Interactive Entertainment Ltd. is heading out west to
Los Angeles in May to unveil its strongest ever line-up of
console games at the annual E3 show.
The Electronics Entertainment Expo, or E3 for short, is the
most significant gaming show in the calendar and Midas will
be taking the opportunity to unveil a raft of new and
exciting PlayStation 2 (PS2) titles to the worlds media and
key retail customers.
First up are two titles within Midas' highly successful World
War II series of video games. WWII: Battle over Europe is the
sequel to Midas' top 10 release Pacific Warriors II. The
action has moved to mainland Europe with Spitfires and
Messchersmitts dogfighting in aerial combat.
Back on the ground, WWII: Tank Battles sees some of the most
famous metal hulks or steel, including the Sherman, Panzer
and King Tiger, wreak their destructive havoc against ground
forces and military compounds.
Both titles set new standards for budget PlayStation 2 gaming
and are certain to strengthen Midas' reputation for
delivering outstanding value for money military combat
games.
Other PlayStation 2 titles making their debuts at E3 include
-
Zoocube: A revolutionary puzzle game with a truly modern
ecological theme. By saving the animal species of the world
you protect the food chain and save humanity from an evil
scientist. It's not as easy as it sounds though with both a
fast mind and even faster dexterity required for
success.
World Super Police: Gangland car crime is out of control.
Behind these gangs is a co-ordinated global terrorist force.
A response is needed to meet this threat head on and thus a
new force - the World Super Police is created. Your role as
part of this crack squad is to neutralise this threat. You
have got all the technology you need - take to the streets of
the greatest cities on the planet and save the day!
The Cue Academy: Snooker, Pool, Billiards: Go to the home of
the greatest players and hone your skills before heading out
on the competition circuit. The game features an unrivalled
amount of un-lockable extras and rewards including new
locations, accessories and special moves.
WWI: Aces of the Sky: The planes might be vintage but the
action is as intense as any air combat game on any console.
Although you have got an extensive arsenal at your disposal
your main asset is your ability to out-maneuver the enemy so
you can get them in your sights and send them to the ground
in a ball of smoke.
The Midas stand can be found in the West Hall number 2800. UK
