SEGA Begins Its Journey On The Road To E3
Join SEGA's Virtual Road Trip as New Titles are Announced Leading Up to First Day of E3
<b>SAN FRANCISCO & LONDON (April 24,
2006)</b> - SEGA® of America, Inc. and SEGA Europe Ltd.
today announced its plans to take gamers on a virtual road
trip on the "Road to E3". Starting on April 25, SEGA will
announce new titles leading up to the first day of show at
the 2006 Electronic Entertainment Expo.
SEGA has recently taken numerous steps to reaffirming its
place as a leading publisher and developer of next-generation
entertainment software. The acquisition of cutting-edge
developers -- The Creative Assembly, Secret Level and Sports
Interactive -- shows SEGA's support of next-generation
development. SEGA's support of Nintendo's upcoming Virtual
Console on the Nintendo Revolution system opens the door for
younger gamers to experience SEGA's library of classic
games.
"Recent additions to our organization in the form of strong
developers have expanded upon SEGA's next-gen development
prowess," said Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President of
Marketing, SEGA of America, Inc. "Our 2006 E3 line-up clearly
shows that SEGA's commitment to challenging creative and
technological boundaries has never been stronger."
SEGA's "Road to E3" begins tomorrow at 12:01am Pacific
Standard Time with the first announcement in its E3 line up.
SEGA's E3 booth will be located in the South Hall, #946, at
the Los Angeles Convention Center. Title-specific assets will
be available on the SEGA FTP site to coincide with each
announcement.
