For immediate release:

6 September 2005:

In2Games is delighted to announce a highly successful launch week for the revolutionary PS2 game, Real World Golf, which tracks your golf swing in real-time and puts it into the game.

Hitting the top 20 with just 2 days' worth of sales, Real World Golf then rocketed up the PS2 charts to land at number 6, causing many retailers to sell out out of this summer's swinging smash. In2Games and distribution partner Mad Catz have been working around the clock to ensure that stock of Real World Golf, and the Gametrak control system required to play the game is available to retailers and consumers alike.

As well as delivering an incredible chart success for this British-developed and published title, In2Games' Gametrak controller has become the fastest-selling new control system in gaming history. In2Games has ramped up production of Gametrak in its Chinese factories to cope with the huge demand expected worldwide over the Christmas period.

Elliott Myers, MD of In2Games commented "We are delighted that Real World Golf has been received so well by the press, customers and gamers alike. I would like to thank all our staff, Aqua Pacific who developed the game, and our our distribution, PR, marketing and retail partners for their continued support.

Instead of a complex and intimidating series of buttons and joysticks; fighting games enable users to physically punch opponents using boxing gloves; sports games will users to pick up and play using real golf clubs or tennis rackets; adventure games will become totally immersive as users are able to manipulate 'virtual' onscreen objects with their hands.

The first Gametrak title, Dark Wind, launched on PS2 in October 2004, winning awards such as Leipzig Games Convention's 'Best Of Show'.
