 GOOD NEWS FOR BOARD GAMERS
  November 18 2002: Virtual boarders can now be dope on the slopes, 
              improve their carves in the bowl or chase bigger air on the waves 
              thanks to a fantastic new sportsboard from Gamester - the UK's leading 
              video games accessories brand from Radica.  Following the success of quality PlayStation 2 titles like Tony 
              Hawks and Tricky SSX, Gamester has designed a quality board to match. 
              The board's innovative design promises to leave it way out in front 
              of any other products currently on the market, and offers gamers 
              a real chance to improve their performance on the powder, in the 
              park and on the water.  Unlike other boards - which are chunky and clunky and pivot in 
              the middle like a see-saw throwing players off - the patented Gamester 
              sportsboard is slimline and ultra-sensitive. It offers gamers an 
              analogue experience - the more pressure applied in a specific direction, 
              the more the gaming character will turn, closely mirroring real 
              life and dramatically enhancing both gameplay and performance. Adjustable 
              sensitivity control ensures that gamers will be able to refine the 
              board to suit their weight and sense of balance, while their favourite 
              controller can be connected to perform all those SICK! moves.  "Boarding is a massively popular gaming genre and gamers have 
              been crying out for a good quality peripheral to use with these 
              games" commented John Doughty, managing director of Radica UK Ltd. 
              "the unique patented technology applied to our sportsboard sets 
              it streets ahead of existing boards in terms of looks and performance 
              and once again highlights Gamester reputation as the world's most 
              innovative VGA manufacturer."  The Gamester sportsboard is available now at an SSP of £39.99.
