Golf Launchpad Now Compatible with PlayStation 2

May 2005-- Electric~Spin Corporation has announced that Golf Launchpad is now compatible with Sony PlayStation 2. Released at the Consumer Electronics Show 2005 in January, Golf Launchpad is a USB peripheral that allows users to play top golf games with their own golf swing and clubs on Windows and Mac. Electric Spin’s new accessory, the PlayStation Adaptor for Golf Launchpad, expands the offering to PlayStation 2 golf games.

“Golf Launchpad allows you to play super-realistic golf – anytime, anywhere,” said Mark Spinelli, a PGA Professional and golf instructor based in Los Angeles. “The PlayStation Adapter for Golf Launchpad now allows Gamers and Golfers alike to play their favorite golf courses around the world in the comfort of their living room on their PlayStations.”

Golf Launchpad brings incredible realism to gaming: players experience the exact feel and sound of their shots while playing the world’s best courses on their computer or giant screen TV. Golf Launchpad’s design reproduces the physics of free-ball impact, thus allowing for convenience without compromise. In addition, Golf Launchpad’s high-quality turf on a custom engineered rubber base allows for confident iron play while high speed optical digital signal processing provides unmatched accuracy.

“Our technology allows beginners to get into the game while still challenging pros like myself,” says Shawn Clement, Sales Manager for Electric~Spin who has 18 years of experience as a golf professional.

All existing Golf Launchpad units are compatible with the PlayStation Adapter. The user simply plugs the PlayStation Adaptor into a PlayStation 2, and then plugs Golf Launchpad into the PlayStation Adapter. There are no configuration settings to change.

Starting in September 2005, The PlayStation Adapter for Golf Launchpad will be sold as an accessory and will be available wherever Golf Launchpad is sold. For more information on the Golf Launchpad and the PlayStation Adapter, please visit www.electricspin.com.
