Saturn & SteelSeries shoot-out! Gallery up!

With the opening of the Saturn store in Liege’s brand new Shopping Mall (Media Cité), Steelseries and Saturn decided to organise a shoot out event for the promotion of the Steelseries products sold in all Saturn stores in Belgium. The shoot out took place Saturday the 5th of December, which was the ideal date for early Christmas shopping and some gaming afterwards.

The CS 1.6 players for this event were Riccardo hutCh Natalizio and Massimo id3nt Cicerale

Now in the end nobody won, the closest a competitor could get was a 9-10 score after even leading 9-5 but hutCh came back causing some people to sweat! Now because nobody won and the goal was to give some headsets away (yeah the pro gamers were unbeatable..) we gave them to those people who put the most rounds and were still present to receive their prize.

Looking back on the afternoon everyone had a great time! The saturn management was happy with the event and having Mikkel (SteelSeries) around who only went home 2 days after he returned from the EPS finals in Utrecht was something we didn’t expect!

A great opportunity for our two players to have some nice conversations in a relaxed environment! Everyone enjoyed it and you can see that on the pictures below! HF and see you all in 2010 for more events in the Saturn shops in Belgium and many other things to keep secret for now! stay tuned!

SteelSeries Introduces New High Definition Gaming Mouse And Gaming Surface!

CHICAGO -  SteelSeries, the leading manufacturer of gaming peripherals and accessories, today introduced the SteelSeries Xai Laser Mouse, SteelSeries Kinzu Optical Mouse and the SteelSeries 9HD hard plastic surface. The technology, shape, size, weight and feel of the SteelSeries Xai was designed with one purpose: to create an immediate advantage for gamers by enhancing a user’s performance during game play.

“We spent three years methodically perfecting the SteelSeries Xai by researching mouse grips used by professional gaming teams such as Fnatic, SK Gaming and Evil Geniuses in order to create a level of performance that gamers have never experienced before,” said Bruce Hawver, CEO of SteelSeries. “The SteelSeries Xai’s High Definition sensor offers a huge improvement over the current highest-end gaming mice and it is designed with technical specifications that increase the level of performance results, especially during the most frantic and fast-paced games.”

Research and development of the mouse was done in close cooperation with full-time professional gamers from the U.S., Europe and Asia to ensure that the SteelSeries Xai is a tool with a purpose – not just a gadget. The 10.8 megapixels/second sensor offers a huge improvement over the current generation of gaming mice by processing 12,000 frames/second at 5,001 CPI at movement speeds of 150 inches/second providing the user with High Definition tracking for unparalleled precision. Furthermore, the SteelSeries Xai offers unprecedented levels of personalization for the user, with unique SteelSeries sensor innovations like SteelSeries ExactAim, SteelSeries ExactRate, SteelSeries ExactSens, SteelSeries FreeMove and automatic lift distance calibration. SteelSeries Xai can be fully configured via a LCD menu system on the back of the mouse, where settings will be stored on the mouse thus eliminating the need for drivers and providing configuration capabilities on-the-go.

Some of the features of the SteelSeries Xai include:

- Ambidextrous shape

- 7 Programmable macro buttons, 200 strokes per button

- Driverless plug-and-play, with 5 profiles

- Fully configurable via LCD menu system

- 100-5,001 counts/inch

The SteelSeries 9HD surface was designed to fully support the enhanced tracking capabilities of next-generation High Definition gaming mice. The finely textured surface consists of tens-of-thousands of light reflecting microscopic points, enabling the user to perform exceptionally precise mouse operations, including minimal movements as well as high velocity “slingshots.”

In addition to the SteelSeries Xai Laser Mouse, SteelSeries is also introducing the SteelSeries Kinzu Optical Mouse. Based on the same shape as the SteelSeries Xai, but 7% smaller in size, the SteelSeries Kinzu processes 9,375 frames/second at 3,200 CPI and is compact, lightweight, and is in a league of its own when it comes to reliability and stability.

SteelSeries Xai, SteelSeries Kinzu and SteelSeries 9HD will be available August 2009.
