SOLD OUT MARCHES ON WITH EIDOS TITLES
Copyright 2003 Sold Out Press Release

[ February 17th 2003 ]

Sold Out enters March with a spring in its step on the back of one of its strongest sextet of titles to date. Leading the new releases to its £4.99 Super Budget label are Deus Ex and MDK2 - two titles that perfectly demonstrate the variety the Sold Out range enjoys.

Deus Ex is a legend within PC circles. Created by Texas-based Ion Storm, the game is the result of four years' development and is a sprawling sci-fi epic casting the player as a law enforcement agent in a crime-addled city. The huge environment allows the user to explore the non-linear adventure at will, while a cast of rounded characters are on hand to both help and hinder.

MDK2 was originally released through Interplay and is a superb arcade adventure based on Shiny Entertainment's classic predecessor. The player controls a hero clad in a revolutionary body suit equipped with a host of special abilities, including parachute and high-powered artillery. Using these, the player must pick a path through a series of huge 3D worlds taking out an army of bad guys and end-of-level bosses in this graphically stunning title.

Also revving up to join the £4.99 range is SCi's Carmageddon TDR 2000, a classic slice of motoring mayhem, where the player accrues points by running down anyone who gets in their way. The sextet is then completed with the welcome addition of RTS Rival Realms, Interplay's 3D exploration epic Descent 3 and the genre-defying Evolva - a game of evolution, destruction and genetic modification boasting incredible organic visuals and animation.

All six titles will be released on March 21st, and will come with Sold Out's. Now installation and online support software. "At Sold Out we pride ourselves on releasing the best games for the lowest possible prices, but even by our standards this March collection is something else," commented managing director Garry Williams. "To be able to offer the likes of Deus Ex and MDK2 for less than a fiver is incredible - but what else would you expect from Sold Out?"
