GLUTTONS FOR PUNISHMENT UNITE! ACTIVISION PUBLISHING, ABC AND ENDEMOL USA ANNOUNCE WIPEOUT: THE GAME FOR NINTENDO DSTM AND WiiTM
Video Game Hilarity based off of ABC’s Smash Hit TV Show Hits Shelves This Summer
SANTA MONICA, CA – March 18, 2010 – Activision Publishing, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) today announced that it is bringing the Endemol USA produced hit ABC TV show Wipeout to Nintendo DS™ and Wii™ this summer. Wipeout: The Game challenges fans to master speed, balance, and precision to overcome the world’s largest obstacle course while enduring the inevitable hilarious falls, sometimes at the hands of your friends and family!
“Watching ABC’s Wipeout every week on TV is outrageous fun, and viewers can’t help but dream of trying the obstacles themselves,” said David Oxford, Activision Publishing. “We designed the video game with this in mind. Wipeout: The Game brings all of the challenge and laugh-out-loud hilarity, without the pain.”
Announced for the first time at GDC 2009, The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks became one of the few Zelda games to be announced and released in the same year. Featuring a graphical style similar to that of 2007’s Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks showcased a new mode of transportation for Hyrule’s hero, a train. While the initial trailer for Spirit Tracks showed off quite a bit of gameplay, there were still many questions I had. Would Link still be able to travel on foot in the overworld? Will you be able to lay your own tracks in the world? Where did the tracks/train come from? Fast forward to today, and we have all our answers as I’ve spent many an hour in Link’s latest adventure. And believe me, this is one adventure you won’t want to miss!

Melbourne-based game developer Tantalus today announced the imminent release of its first ever game for the Nintendo DSi™. Built from the ground up and exclusively for that platform, Drift Street International is the ultimate high-speed, white-knuckle street racing experience. Gamers will slide and boost their tightly tuned performance car around challenging city streets across the US, UK and Japan, in high-intensity midnight races. Drift Street International will be available for download in North America on March 22, with Europe and Australasia to follow.
Tantalus is one of the world’s foremost handheld racing developers, with a string of hits including multiple titles in the Cars and MX vs ATV series, and the now legendary Top Gear
Rally on Game Boy Advance. Despite this impressive pedigree, CEO Tom Crago says Drift Street International represents the company’s greatest achievement yet. “To have Top Gear
published by Nintendo and win a number of Game of the Year awards was a huge rush, but we all feel as though we’ve made something even more special with Drift Street International,” said Crago. “Visually, it stands apart from anything else out there, and in terms of car handling and gameplay it’s in a league of its own.”
