Gaming Accessories Industry Just Got Better, As SteelSeries Aquires Ideazon In An Asset Transaction
CHICAGO, July 29, 2008 - The leading manufacturer of innovative professional gaming gear, SteelSeries, today announced its acquisition of certain assets in Ideazon, Inc., the North American-based developer and manufacturer of gaming peripherals and technologies. This acquisition further strengthens SteelSeries' peripheral technology and will help expand the company's broad support within the gaming community.

“SteelSeries has brought together two rapidly growing companies in the gaming space, making SteelSeries one of the fastest-growing gaming peripherals manufacturers globally," said Bruce Hawver, CEO of SteelSeries. “No other organization works as closely with both gamers, and now software creators, in order to create arguably the most responsive gaming products in the world, optimized for gamers' preferences, as well as specific gaming publishers and specific titles."

SteelSeries has achieved success and recognition over the past few years in working with and establishing new professional gaming events, like Iron.Lady and King of the Hill, as well as its support of more than 1,200 events globally. Ideazon has helped enhance the gaming experience through its relationships with top game developers and publishers, but its start in gaming also came from the gamers' perspective and has grown from there.

“Ideazon's game-branded line of PC peripherals is incredibly popular and enjoys a dedicated following," added SteelSeries' Hawver. “Their products truly complement our own by extending our reach to a broader audience of gamers. Our combined expertise with competitive gamers will help speed the development of game- branded products by linking the game developers with the strongest group of pro gamers in the world."

SteelSeries supports more than 200 professional gaming teams globally and has involved many more pro and competitive gamers during its product development process. Ideazon has also inspired a community of gamers in terms of both sponsorships and event support.

“This acquisition will further establish SteelSeries as a leading global gaming peripherals manufacturer," said Jacob Wolff-Petersen, Founder of SteelSeries . “No other organization works as closely with gamers and industry partners, or has a more comprehensive line of products to support every type of gamer. The synergies between Ideazon and SteelSeries are evident in the design, relationships and industry influence that both companies bring to the table to create this new gaming powerhouse."

The new combined organization will be headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark with offices in North America and Asia.

We are proud to announce that Razer is now an official sponsor of Baselan and AYB Online.

Razer collaborates with gamers to develop, manufacture and market cutting-edge gaming peripherals utilizing proprietary technologies that give gamers the competitive edge. We reinvented the computer gaming industry by bringing this competitive edge to gamers when professional computer gaming was in its infancy. In the mid 90s, with the advent of networked gaming and competitive first-person-shooter (FPS) games, gamers found that their legacy peripherals were inhibiting rather than enhancing their gameplay.

Razer products are available through the AYB Online webstore.

We will be hosting a few fun events at Baselan to win some Razer prizes include a Razer Diamondback 3G gaming mouse to the person who can put on the most rub on tattoos in 20 minutes.

Copenhagen, Denmark - November 28th, 2007 -- SteelSeries, a leading manufacturer of innovative professional gaming gear, today announced the SteelSeries SP, the latest addition to the company's growing portfolio of gaming peripherals. The SteelSeries SP is a professional gaming mouse pad aimed exclusively at professional and competitive gamers.

The new SteelSeries SP is a macroscopic textured hard plastic mouse pad designed for competitive gamers demanding precision, accuracy and stability from their mousing surface. The responsive gaming grade surface of SteelSeries SP offers minimal friction and was specifically designed for gamers applying a high force of contact/pressure on their mice while playing. A non-slip rubber base ensures that the mouse pad doesn't slide, even during the most frantic gaming sessions.

“SteelSeries SP was designed to complement the SteelSeries S&S, one of our best-selling mouse pads," says Tino Soelberg, Head of R&D for SteelSeries. “The surface isn't as rough as the SteelSeries S&S and it offers a lot less friction. Since it was designed for gamers using a significant amount of force on their mice, it is also one of the most durable surfaces we have created."

“Working with SteelSeries is great, because I feel I have a lot to offer from my own gaming experience," says Abdisamad “SK.SpawN" Mohamed, Counter-Strike player for SK Gaming. “I know what I like and don't like in a product, and being involved in the design process is both challenging and fun."

SteelSeries SP is compatible with gaming grade optical and laser mice technologies and was developed and fine-tuned in cooperation with professional Counter-Strike players from mousesports, SK Gaming, Team 3D and compLexity. Final surface optimization was done in cooperation with Abdisamad “SK.SpawN" Mohamed. A special SteelSeries SpawN SP product is currently scheduled for release in 2008.

Because of the holidays we are currently giving everyone the opportunity to win the new SteelSeries SP including all of our other recently released products. Check out the winter-wonder competition here on SteelSeries.com. ... :: Read more

Copenhagen, Denmark - November 13th, 2007 -- SteelSeries, a leading manufacturer of innovative professional gaming gear, today announced the debut of the new 7G keyboard, the latest addition to the company's growing portfolio of gaming peripherals. The SteelSeries 7G is a professional gaming keyboard aimed exclusively at professional and competitive gamers.

The SteelSeries 7G sets a new industry standard for gaming keyboards by allowing users to perform a new level of detailed and advanced key combinations. By utilizing the most powerful PS/2 buffer-system ever created for a gaming keyboard, the 7G redefines “anti-ghosting" by supporting as many simultaneous key press commands as there are keys on the keyboard. The keyboard features both PS/2 and USB connectors.

The combination of the powerful PS/2 buffer-system and 18K gold-plated mechanical switches, means that the SteelSeries 7G offers more Actions-Per-Minute than any other keyboard in the world. The keyboard was built specifically to offer gaming grade response times as well as an unmatched durability with a switch lifetime of 50 million operations.

The SteelSeries 7G keyboard is equipped with audio ports for headphone-out and microphone-in and features two port USB hub. In addition, the keyboard offers essential gaming features such as the compact SteelSeries Media Controls, which allows the user quick access to volume, mute and other audio controls.
“Somewhere the industry took a wrong turn when it came to gaming peripherals. It became more important to add colorful lighting and features that have no impact on professional gaming, than to create high quality products, “ says Tino Soelberg, Head of R&D for SteelSeries. “With the 7G keyboard, SteelSeries is following our company line of no-BS / no-nonsense, and to deliver a product that does what it's supposed to do - help players perform better and faster in-game".

“SteelSeries 7G was designed for players competing in the traditional eSports platforms, such as Counter-Strike, Warcraft III:TFT, World of Warcraft and many others," says Jonas “Johnny R" Bollack, SteelSeries development team. “A keyboard has to help the player communicate with his computer by being responsive, durable, reliable and comfortable to use. SteelSeries 7G does just that."
All keys are operated at 60g, with a travel time of roughly 50% compared to standard keyboards, making the SteelSeries 7G ideal for long gaming sessions. The mechanical tactile system is ergonomically designed to ensure ease-of-use, and the no-click switches makes the SteelSeries 7G both comfortable and pleasant to use.

The new SteelSeries 7G will be released in early December at an MRSP of $149.99 USD. ... :: Read more

SteelSeries Announces SteelSeries Ikari Optical And Laser Professional Gaming Mice

Leipzig, Germany -- August 23rd, 2007 -- SteelSeries, a leading manufacturer of innovative professional gaming gear, today announced the SteelSeries Ikari Optical and SteelSeries Ikari Laser professional gaming mice. The new, ergonomic right-handed multi-grip mice mark the company's entry into the market for gaming mice. Adding the gaming mice line compliments an existing portfolio of professional gaming gear that consists of headsets, keyboards, surfaces, accessories and security software designed for competitive gamers.

The SteelSeries Ikari mice are the result of 15 months extensive research of ergonomics, technology, shape, motion, hand grip and play styles by gamers. The SteelSeries Ikari mice sets a new industry standard for input, research and co-development with professional gamers for gaming mice. The shape, materials and specifications of the SteelSeries Ikari mice are based on input from professional players from Team 3D, compLexity, mousesports, SK Gaming, Team NoA and other world-class gaming organizations, who collectively represent the world's most accomplished gamers in Counter-Strike and other gaming disciplines. The development of SteelSeries Ikari was also driven by community input and feedback from more than 5,000 gamers from the competitive gaming segment.

The SteelSeries Ikari chassis is shaped to accommodate the three predominant methods of grip utilized by gamers today: Swipe, Claw, and Palm. The chassis features five buttons with high quality gaming grade contacts. The SteelSeries Ikari mice also have an anti-sweat and slip-resistant surface coating to improve mouse control during intense gaming sessions. The SteelSeries Ikari mice boast the largest SteelSeries Glide surface ever utilized on gaming mice (more than a 300% increase over traditional gaming mice) that is specifically designed to reduce friction between the pressure points on the mouse and the surface under the mouse.

Both models of the SteelSeries Ikari mice feature plug-and-play features that will allow gamers to play at LAN events and tournaments without the need to install specific mouse drivers. The SteelSeries Ikari mice operate at 500 Hz and feature “on-the-fly" DPI settings.

Special features of the two SteelSeries Ikari models:

SteelSeries Ikari Optical

Specific design for FPS gamers
Driverless, plug-and-play feature for LAN gamers
Pressure points that reduce friction for optimized glide
Ability to toggle between 2 DPI settings

SteelSeries Ikari Laser

Specific designed for RTS & MMO gamers
Programmable macro buttons with driverless plug-and-play feature
Pressure points that reduce frictio for optimized glide
Ability to toggle DPI range with LCD readout

The SteelSeries Ikari Optical was designed as a no-bullshit, top performer for FPS gamers. The research and development emphasized a “no nonsense, no crap" approach with proven optical technology that allows gamers consistent, fast movements without technical difficulties of any kind.

The SteelSeries Ikari Laser mouse was specifically designed for RTS and MMO gamers in mind that features programmable macros and custom settings designed to increase the users Actions Per Minute (APM) count. The mouse can be programmed from home and will remember the settings for tournament use even without installing drivers.

The new gaming mice from SteelSeries will be released Q4 2007. ... :: Read more
