EDISON, N.J., Oct. 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Showcasing an exciting roster of products for the gamer on everybody's gift list, Majesco Entertainment Company (Nasdaq: COOL), today announced its video game lineup for the forthcoming holiday season. With offerings to support every major gaming platform, Majesco's release schedule is headlined by innovative titles like Infected and hot licensed properties including Aeon Flux and Teen Titans™.
"Video games are one of the most popular gift items for the holiday season and our diverse lineup offers something for gamers of all ages and tastes," said Ken Gold, vice president of Marketing for Majesco. "Whether you're looking for a competitive game play experience or a great value, Majesco's upcoming releases offer shoppers quality and variety."
Highlights of Majesco's premier holiday lineup include:
Infected (PSP™)
Available November / Rated M / SRP $39.99
One of the most exciting titles available exclusively for the PSP™ (PlayStation®Portable), Infected features pulse-pounding two-gun action as players cleanse the mean New York City streets of mad, flesh-hungry "Infected." Planet Moon Studio's zombie-fest offers an engrossing single-player campaign and four Wi-Fi multiplayer modes that allow players' avatars to invade opponents' PSP systems. Infected also features an in-game soundtrack comprised of top metal bands from Roadrunner Records including Slipknot, Ill Nino, Chimaira and more.
Aeon Flux (PlayStation® 2, Xbox™)
Available November 15 / Rated T / SRP $49.99
Aeon Flux bridges the fever-dream essence of the cult-classic animated TV series with the mass-market appeal of the upcoming feature film starring Oscar® Winner Charlize Theron who lends her voice and likeness to the game. Developed by Terminal Reality, Aeon Flux features a palpitating blend of stealth, speed and acrobatic combat.
Teen Titans™ (Game Boy Advance)
Available Now / Rated E10+ / SRP $29.99
Developed by Artificial Mind & Movement, Teen Titans, licensed by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, is based on the highly popular Warner Bros. Animation television series and DC Comics characters. In Teen Titans, players switch control between Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy, Cyborg and Raven to take advantage of each Teen Titan's trademark moves and abilities. Players advance through a crime-ridden city of hostile environments as they face off against notorious villains Brother Blood, Jinx, Gizmo and Mammoth. Console versions are planned for release in early 2006.
