IENT To Launch New Tank Simulation and
Two New Flying Simulations at E3 Show
All Three to Ship at Retail in Fall
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 22, 2002-- I Entertainment Network, (OTCBB: IENT - News) announces today that it will launch three new massive multiplayer retail and internet products at the E3 show in Los Angeles, CA, May 22nd to May 24th.
International game publishers will ship each of these products for the fall retail season. IENT's CEO, Bill Stealey, can be found at the Simon and Schuster booth in the West Foyer at E3. Simon and Schuster will ship one of IENT's titles for the Fall retail season.
IENT will release its new World War II Tank game, "K.I.C. A.S.S." (KA). This new massive multiplayer online simulation game (MMOSG), originally called, "Knights in Combat, Armored Simulation Series", takes advantage of the new graphics technology developed for the award winning, "WarBirds III" flight simulation. This product features all the major ground vehicles of World War II and immerses the player in exciting and realistic combat between the Allied and Axis Armored Divisions.
Two new flying games, "WarBirds Korea", and "Dawn of Aces III", will also be launched at the E3 show. WarBirds Korea features the first jet combat the world had ever seen including F-86s, P-80s, MiGs, and many of the ground vehicles of the period. WarBirds Korea also uses real satellite topographical data for the Korean peninsula. WarBirds is the only product on the market that can display 256 square miles of 1 to 1 real world terrain. Dawn of Aces III brings to life the birth of aerial combat from World War I when Spads and Fokker Triplanes ruled the sky! Dawn of Aces allows players to experience the excitement of the first combat aviators the world ever knew. With wings of canvas these predators of the sky engage in combat aptly described as a knife fight in a phone booth. Get in close and react quickly to get the kill!
"These new products will introduce a large and growing number of retail players to IENT's online subscription service and should produce significant increases in both offline and online revenues enabling IENT to achieve its revenue growth goals," says IENT CEO, JW "Wild Bill" Stealey. "Also, we are already planning three additional retail products for release in 2003."
All of these new products use the IENT's Patented latency management system, (Patent No. 6,042,477), to minimize the effects of time latency in multiplayer online games. This Patent provides players all over the world a consistent Internet gaming experience and allows players from Europe, Asia, and the United States to play together in the same arenas while minimizing Internet latency problems.
