Pioneer Delivers Sensory Experience For Newest Videogame Titles at E3

May 22 /PRNewswire/ -- As interactive entertainment enthusiasts descend on Los Angeles to test-drive the hottest new video games at the annual Electronic Entertainment Expo, Pioneer is at the controls, ready to take the videogame experience to the next level. Incredible graphics and surround sound capabilities have become standard features of the hottest games and Pioneer offers the advanced audio and video systems that provide gamers the ultimate experience at home and in the car."Gamers want to be enraptured in an 'other world' where you can hear the bad guy creeping up from behind, the roar of the crowd and the fighter planes in action," said Craig McManis, vice president of marketing for home entertainment at Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc. "This full-fledged sensory experience is the future of game play and Pioneer offers the tools for gamers to create that experience."

The Ultimate Video Game Experience-At Home and On the Road
For the Crib: At the center of every gamer's home is the almighty console. And now the top video game consoles, including the Xbox, Game Cube and PlayStation feature multi-channel capabilities. The latest game titles offer Dolby Digital surround sound. Unfortunately, many gamers have the console and dozens of games, but don't have the accessories to maximize the benefits of today's newest titles.

Pioneer pumps up the volume with audio video receivers to enhance the experience with multi-channel surround sound that makes every gunshot, every footstep and every door creak sound eerily realistic. The company's speakers and subwoofers offer crystal-clear sound with ample power to feel every bone jarring tackle of the newest sports games. Home-theater-in-a-box systems are all-in-one celebrations of sound and clarity that make the purchase decision simple. A typical home theater system from Pioneer includes a digital A/V receiver offering Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound processing, five full-range satellite speakers and a subwoofer. A variety of home theater systems are available beginning at a suggested retail price of $475.

A true testament to Pioneer's commitment to big sound and big video is the fact that the company only manufactures televisions that are at least 43 inches diagonal or larger. Playing a video game on a computer monitor is fine, but playing a video game on a 64-inch wide screen, high definition projection television is a truly mind-shattering experience. Pioneer offers projection televisions in 53-, 58- and 64-inch screen sizes and PureVision plasma televisions in 43- and 50-inch sizes. Suggested retail prices start at $3,999.

For the Ride: Gamers are never done conquering levels and battling friends on the gridiron. Now, with a Pioneer in-car audio video system, a set of REV speakers and a gaming console, hard-core gamers can transform the back seat of any ride into a video game haven.

Pioneer offers audio video systems with multi-channel processors that are perfect for in-car gaming, offering Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound processing and inputs for easy hook-up to most video game consoles. When combined with Pioneer's hot-looking REV series speakers, the in-car sound effects can be as sensational as the surround sound at home. Audio video systems can be customized to fit any vehicle, beginning at a suggested retail price of $1800.

Gamers can't blame a missed shot on picture quality: Pioneer's in-car LCD widescreen monitors offer 234-by-1440 pixel count, one of the highest in the industry, for exceptional picture quality. Anti-glare, low-reflection coated screens ensure a crisp, clear image that enhances the gaming experience. Screen sizes begin at 6.5" for a suggested retail price of $650.

Gaming is one of the fastest growing segments of the consumer electronics industry because of the interactive, live-action experience it provides. Pioneer is committed to enhancing that experience with the ultimate audio and video products for the ultimate earth-shattering effects.
