GoGamer.com will be showcasing the following products in Kentia Hall booth #6447. All are available from www.gogamer.com:
VirtualGT:
The ultra high-end VirtualGT Pro-PC Race Car Simulator features a custom force-feedback steering wheel, adjustable pedals, 9 channels of audio totaling over 500 watts, a racing seat with 4-point harness, and a 37" high-resolution plasma display. This ultimate personal racing simulator authentically recreates the sound and feeling of driving a race car by employing a massive high quality surround sound audio system and four vibration transducers directly mounted to the pedals, wheel and seat. Combined with the force-feedback steering, the sensation of being "in-the-car" is uncanny. It comes complete with display, a high-performance PC and an array of racing software preinstalled and configured. It is also available without the PC option for use with PlayStation and Xbox consoles.
Manufacturer: Virtual-E Corporation (www.virtualgt.com). A GoGamer.com-E3 special price is available, stop by booth for details.

TrackIR:
TrackIR 3 Pro with Vector Expansion brings the most realistic and affordable optical tracking to gamers and simulation fans alike. It precisely translates all head motion into a user's virtual point of view – pan side to side, look around, even zoom with full 3-dimensional tracking. The Vector Expansion allows a user to expand his or her view control to a full range of motion, from 2 degrees (2DOF pitch/yaw), to all six degrees of freedom (6DOF). No matter how or which direction one moves their head, Vector instantly captures it with extreme precision and accuracy, giving users the most realistic head tracking experience possible. The application-specific hardware runs at a blazing 120 frames per second (FPS), four times faster than a standard Web camera, so as user's sit in their cockpit or driver's seat they will never miss a moment of action.
