Multiplayer Mayhem and Arcade Action, Makes Warlords a Standout on Xbox LIVE Arcade and PlayStation Network in Summer 2011

London, United Kingdom, March 29, 2011 — Atari Europe, one of the world’s most recognised publishers and producers of interactive entertainment announced today that Warlords, a remake of the classic Atari 2600 title, will be making its debut on Xbox LIVE® Arcade for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation®Network in Summer 2011.

Warlords is a one-to-four player, arcade action game in which players defend their castles from mischievous minions and ferocious fireballs spun from the mouth of a maniacal dragon. In this whimsical reinvention of the beloved classic, players will face the ultimate battle of speed, strategy and survival.

In addition, the game will increasingly challenge players to multitask as they strive to shield the castle walls and simultaneously rally troops to capture control points, collect power-ups and destroy other warring factions.

“Warlords infuses the arcade action genre with a bold and vibrant visual style coupled with robust strategic gameplay,” says Jim Wilson, President and CEO of Atari, Inc. “It exemplifies our design goals and company strategy as we reintroduce these classic brands to a new generation of gamers.”

KEY FEATURES:

Protect the stronghold! Defend your castle walls from the destruction of fast-flying fireballs with your mighty shield. Move the shield around the perimeter of your castle with precision and speed to deflect the fireballs or grab onto and charge fireballs to release even more devastating attacks back at your opponents.

Multiple local/online game modes sweeten the quest for power and allow for cooperative and competitive battles with up to 4 players. Select the faction of your choice and engage in a number of competitive variations, including co-op siege mode, 2v2 or classic free-for-all battles.

Rally your Troops and pit them against your foes. Your loyal posse brings a layer of depth and replayability to every battle, and can be sent off to capture control points, gather power-ups to immobilise your enemies or bolster your defenses. Manage your troops wisely to gain the battlefield advantage!

Developed by Griptonite Games, Warlords will be available this Summer. For more information, please log onto www.atari.com or www.atari.com/warlords

Nintendo Australia announces that within one week of Pokémon™ Black Version and Pokémon White Version hitting Australian shelves on 10 March 2011, combined sales exceeded 77,000* units – smashing all previous records for week one sales of a Nintendo game in Australia.

The previous Australian Pokémon release of Pokémon HeartGold Version and Pokémon SoulSilver Version, sold a combined total of more than 45,000 units in week one of sales. New SUPER MARIO BROS.™ Wii sold through more than 47,400 in week one in November 2009. This makes the release of Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version the biggest selling week one release of any Nintendo game, across any Nintendo console in the history of Nintendo in Australia. This takes total sales of all Pokémon games in Australia to more than 3 million units.

A family of twelve phasmids – or stick insects as they are more commonly known – have made themselves at home in Scienceworks’ new exhibition Amazing Backyard Adventures, which officially opened to the public on Saturday.

A lucky pair of students from Spotswood Primary students were able to see the new residents up close as Scienceworks’ staff replaced branches in the display case where the insects are housed.   

The phasmids were brought to their new home by Museum Victoria’s Live Exhibits team and are on display at Scienceworks as one of many examples of the amazing biodiversity that can be seen in our backyards.

“Stick insects are a little more difficult to spot in the average backyard than other creatures as they are natural masters of camouflage,” said Patrick Honan, Manager Live Exhibits, Museum Victoria.

“But there are plenty of other vertebrates and invertebrates that inhabit the humble Australian backyard, and indeed backyards around the world.” 

Aimed at children from 5 to 12 years of age, Amazing Backyard Adventures gives families the chance to explore the science that can be found just outside the back door through a series of fun and interactive displays.

“Visitors to Scienceworks will discover a hidden world they may not have previously known even existed, literally right there in their own backyards,” said Genevieve Fahey, Manager of Scienceworks.

“Children can experience what the garden looks like through the eyes of a bee or a dog, and walk through a magnified version of the garden lawn as though they are the size of a small insect.

“Little ones will be able to explore the exhibition from an entirely different perspective, by dressing up in costume to play the part of a frog or spider as they learn about every day science,”

People interested in “D-I-Y” will also have the chance to design their own environmentally friendly garden or create the perfect garden path.

“Whether through learning about how plants grow and change over the seasons or seeing how common animals and insects interact in the garden, Amazing Backyard Adventures is an exciting way to understand the science of everyday life,” said Fahey.

Amazing Backyard Adventures runs until July 24, and features 18 interactive exhibits with activities that include using night vision to uncover nocturnal residents, or seeing the world from the view of a bee flying through the garden in search of nectar.

Amazing Backyard Adventures developed by Scitech – Perth.

Features Enhanced Performance/Reliability, Larger Capacities and 25nm Intel® NAND Flash Memory

NEWS HIGHLIGHTS
* Third-generation Intel® SSD 320 Series on 25-nm NAND flash memory offers 40-, 80-, 120-, 160-GB plus higher capacity 300- and 600GB options.

* Advanced architecture enables robust, reliable SSDs with enhanced security features for desktop/notebook PCs or server data centre storage.

* Performance, reliability upgrades enhance solid line of high-performing SSDs with up to US$100 price drop over current Intel® X25-M SSD model.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., March 29, 2011 – Intel Corporation announced today its highly anticipated third-generation solid-state drive (SSD) the Intel® Solid-State Drive 320 Series (Intel® SSD 320 Series). Based on its industry-leading 25-nanometre (nm) NAND flash memory, the Intel SSD 320 replaces and builds on its high-performing Intel® X25-M SATA SSD. Delivering more performance and uniquely architected reliability features, the new Intel SSD 320 offers new higher capacity models, while taking advantage of cost benefits from its 25nm process with an up to 30 per cent price reduction over its current generation.

“Intel designed new quality and reliability features into our SSDs to take advantage of the latest 25nm silicon, so we could deliver cost advantages to our customers,” said Pete Hazen, director of marketing for the Intel Non-Volatile Memory (NVM) Solutions Group. “Intel’s third generation of SSDs adds enhanced data security features, power-loss management and innovative data redundancy features to once again advance SSD technology. Whether it’s a consumer or corporate IT looking to upgrade from a hard disk drive, or an enterprise seeking to deploy SSDs in their data centres, the new Intel SSD 320 Series will continue to build on our reputation of high quality and dependability over the life of the SSD.”

The Intel SSD 320 is the next generation of Intel’s client product line for use on desktop and notebook PCs. It is targeted for mainstream consumers, corporate IT or PC enthusiasts who would like a substantial performance boost over conventional mechanical hard disk drives (HDDs). An SSD is more rugged, uses less power and reduces the HDD bottleneck to speed PC processes such as boot up and the opening of files and favourite applications. In fact, an upgrade from an HDD to an Intel SSD can give users one of the single-best performance boosts, providing an up to 66 per cent gain in overall system responsiveness.1

The Intel SSD 320 Series comes in 40 gigabyte (GB), 80GB, 120GB, 160GB and new higher capacity 300GB and 600GB versions. It uses the 3 gigabit-per-second (3gbps) SATA II interface to support an SSD upgrade for the more than 1 billion SATA II PCs installed throughout the world. Continuing to offer high-performing random read and write speeds, which most affect a user’s daily computing experience, the Intel SSD 320 produces up to 39,500 input/output operations per second (IOPS) random reads and 23,000 IOPS random writes on its highest-capacity drives. In addition, the company has more than doubled sequential write speeds from its second generation to 220 megabytes-per-second (MB/s) sequential writes and still maintains one of the highest read throughputs at up to 270 MB/s sequential reads. This greatly improves a user’s multitasking capabilities. For example, a user can easily play background music or download a video, while working on a document with no perceivable slow down.

Already one of the most solid-performing SSDs over time, Intel continues to raise the bar on SSD reliability in the way it has architected its third generation, using proprietary firmware and controller, to further demonstrate that not all solid-state drives are created equal. In this rendition, Intel creatively uses spare area to deploy added redundancies that will help keep user data protected, even in the event of a power loss. It also includes 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard capabilities on every drive, to help protect personal data in the event of theft or loss.

“Solid-state drives continue to be one of the hottest trends in computing,” said Bernard Luthi, vice president of marketing, Web management and customer service at leading e-retailer Newegg.com. “Intel remains a top brand because of its consistent performance and extremely low return rate. We are sure customers will welcome the new higher capacity drives, and now is a great time for consumers to upgrade their PC to a fast new SSD.”

Check retailers/e-tailers for consumer pricing. All models include a limited 3-year warranty from Intel.

“With recent announcements, we have expanded our SSD product line and now offer both consumers and computer OEMs more SSD choices,” said Tom Rampone, vice president and general manager, Intel NVM Solutions Group. “We see the Intel SSD 320 as a solid advancement to our SSD roadmap, and will continue to upgrade and refresh our SSD product line as we add more enterprise options for our business customers throughout the year.”

Another benefit for Intel SSD purchasers is the Intel® SSD Toolbox with Intel® SSD Optimizer, a free utility which provides Microsoft Windows* users with a powerful set of management, information and diagnostic tools to help maintain the health and out-of-box performance of the drive. To help ease the installation process, all Intel SSD users can download the free Intel® Data Migration Software to help clone the entire content of a previous storage drive (SSD or HDD) to any Intel SSD.

To download the multimedia press kit go to Intel® Solid-State Drives (SSD).
