Logitech’s Newest PC Joysticks And Gamepad
Now Hitting Retail Shelves

With Sleek Designs, Premium Features and Affordable Pricing, Logitech Reaffirms
Commitment to PC Gaming

"Logitech continues to set the standards for
the PC gaming hardware market, with ongoing innovation, great design and
exciting new features," said Fred Swan, director of marketing for Logitech’s
Interactive Entertainment Business Unit. "Because we remain committed to gamers,
we are introducing products designed to enhance the gaming experience,
especially for the highly anticipated new titles scheduled to launch over the
next eighteen months. We believe there are many devoted PC gaming fans who will
appreciate the fresh new hardware choices that we’re offering."

Although sales of hardware and software for
console platforms are strong and growing, there remains a large installed base
of PCs, which serve as a “digital hub” for a variety of activities, including
desktop gaming, either as a passion or as a break from other computing tasks.

The new Logitech PC gaming products lineup
include:

• Logitech Extreme 3D Pro – The Extreme 3D
  Pro blends useful features with a new eye-catching industrial design. For
  quick and easy access to the multiple commands of today’s games, the joystick
  has twelve conveniently placed action buttons. A comfortable twist handle
  nearly essential in many games acts as a rudder in flight simulation games and
  allows fast rotation in first-person games. The joystick features a rubberized
  8-way hat switch and a high-precision throttle that allows gamers to adjust
  power settings in a game with pinpoint accuracy.

• Logitech Attack 3 – With an easy setup and
  simple layout particularly well suited for entry-level gamers or those for
  whom a joystick is not the usual controller of choice, the Attack 3 joystick
  is suitable for gamers of any experience level. It features 11 programmable
  buttons to choose from, making it easy to select and fire weapons or to change
  gears. Attack 3 is the company’s first joystick in some time to offer an
  ambidextrous handle, providing excellent comfort and functionality for both
  right and left-handed gamers, while a throttle control rotates smoothly for
  accurate control of power settings. Both joysticks are compatible with PCs and
  Macintosh computers, and feature a space-saving, weighted base that keeps them
  from shifting around during gameplay. In addition, both feature a single
  centering spring within the body of the joystick that allows smooth and
  accurate handle movements with equal force applied in all directions.

• Logitech Dual Action Pad – Logitech gaming
  engineers took the most desirable features that gamers have been asking for
  and incorporated them into a gamepad with an affordable price. The Dual Action
  Pad has a lightweight design that includes two rubber-capped analog joysticks
  for total control and a smooth 360-degree motion. An 8-way D-pad allows for
  precise movements within a game. Four responsive triggers and six buttons
  complete the “right stuff” for eliminating the competition with minimal
  effort.
