Enhancing PC, console and hand-held video games, RumbleFX's built-in vibrating subwoofer rumbles to reveal previously undetected physical dimension of virtual reality game experience

These headphones are the first in Evergreen's new RumbleFX line of consumer electronics products. Lightweight and affordable ($59.99 list), Evergreen's RumbleFX headphones will immerse gamers in the virtual reality of positional audio vibrations so they not only hear where the action is coming from, they also feel it. All games with magnified bass sounds such as explosions, rockets, gunshots, and more -- basically all games on the market today -- will vibrate or ``rumble'' on the RumbleFX headphones.

Console video games, such as Playstation and Playstation II; Nintendo, Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64; and GameCube, Xbox, Dreamcast, Genesis, Saturn and Gamegear; can easily be connected to the RumbleFX headphones through a stereo receiver. The RumbleFX headphones also plug directly into any stereo mini-jack, the standard sound output connection on most PCs, Macs and hand-held Game Boys.

Successfully introduced in other gaming peripherals like joysticks, force feedback ``vibration'' technology is now available in the RumbleFX headphones. RumbleFX technology extracts the hidden physical sensory dimension to create greater immersion and virtual realism. Players now can truly feel the game experience. The RumbleFX headphones also provide a built-in power amplification controller that allows users to fine tune the vibration and volume based on personal preferences.

According to Schelley Olhava, Sr. Analyst, IDC, ``Add-on products designed to enhance the gaming experience can tap into strong video game industry growth going forward. Additionally, research shows that 94.8% of gamers purchase games in retail stores, where they also purchase peripherals after testing products in end-cap displays.''

For a current list of retailers carrying the RumbleFX headphones, customers may visit the www.RumbleFX.com website -- developed for Evergreen's new line of consumer electronics products. The RumbleFX headphones are also available through national distributors and PC mail order catalogs.

``Gamers involved in competitions should see an improvement in their performance, because they'll react faster when they can hear and feel something before they actually see it,'' said Mike Magee, president and CEO of Evergreen Technologies. ``The RumbleFX headphones provide serious gamers the competitive advantage of expanded sensory involvement and, for casual players, they are simply more fun!''

With the RumbleFX technology, game developers now have an acoustical vehicle to exploit in enhancing the gaming experience for their customers.

Additionally, audiophiles will appreciate the sound quality of the RumbleFX headphones, which -- due to the enhanced sub-woofer and acoustically advanced physical design -- is comparable to that of more expensive headphones ranging from $100 to $169. Evergreen includes a stereo headphone conversion jack so users can enjoy standard audio from their stereo system.
