GORMLEY,
Ontario, Canada – May 17, 2001 – Digital Leisure continues to bring classic
arcading home by acquiring 10 laserdisc arcade games from American Laser
Games. American Laser Games, jumped to the forefront of gaming in the 1990’s
and produced an abundance of laserdisc arcade games through the ’90’s
including The Mad Dog McCree series, Crime Patrol series, Space Pirates, Who
Shot Johnny Rock? and others. The 10 titles acquired by Digital Leisure will
soon be available for you on CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, DVD Video and PS2.
"
The American Laser Game titles are a magnificent fit with the Dragon’s Lair
series we already produce," claims Elizabeth Foster, President of Digital
Leisure, "and we are delighted to be able to deliver more classic games
to you!"
These
interactive titles all contain live action video with authentic sound and
scenery to put you in the midst of the action, whether it’s the old west, a
South American drug bust, or the mob run nightclubs of Chicago! The use of
actors and special effects included in these games’ presents a real life
experience not available in other games.
"Its
exciting to see classic arcade gaming make a comeback. Playing your old
favorites on the latest entertainment platform is a great thrill for all. We
are pleased to have Digital Leisure cast these with their classic
titles," states Megan Gaiser, President of Her Interactive, the parent
company of American Laser Games.
Relive
your past as you chase the low down, sidewinder Mad Dog and his band of
cutthroats to save the town mayor and his daughter. With your six-shooter by
your side, jump in your saddle and see how the old west was won in the Mad Dog
McCree series. Become a Law Enforcement Agent tearing after gang members and
street criminals, in order to reach Lopez, the Narcotics King of South America
in the Crime Patrol series. Then dive into the Roaring 20’s in Chicago, where
gangsters and mobs control the city, as Red asks you to solve the mysterious
murder of her fiancé, the famed Lounge Singer Johnny Rock. All these and more
of the long awaited classics will be at the tip of your fingers for hours of
entertainment for all!
