Sin Launched with Discount

ACTIVISION LAUNCHES SIN WITH A STEAL OF A DEAL

Activision, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) is teaming up with Babbage's and Software Etc. stores throughout the United States and Canada to offer consumers $10 off the purchase price of its highly anticipated first-person shooter, Sin. From now through the end of October, consumers who pre-order Sin and put down a $10 deposit will receive a $10 rebate off the purchase price of the game if they buy it within the first two weeks of release.

Sin is the fully-integrated first-person 3D experience that features a character-driven story and revolutionary multiplayer gameplay powered by an enhanced version of the Quake II™ engine. The game features six distinct game world regions enriched with convincing graphic detail. As players battle a barbaric army of human and mutant soldiers, they are assisted by a wise-cracking side kick who communicates tactical information, gives warnings, hacks security systems and provides mission briefings. The game's revolutionary, action-based plot progression and fully interactive environments make Sin the ultimate first person shooter experience. Developed by Ritual Entertainment and published by Activision, the action-shooter is slated for release on Windows 95/98 and Windows NT.
