Miami - July 30, 2008 You’ve waited all summer, and finally, you can hear it – the familiar rumble of 18 wheels of smack talk, frags and pwnage that can mean only one thing: once again, the Dell® Intel® Extreme Gaming Tour is coming to town. And, just like last time, the tour truck is loaded down with all of the latest award-winning Dell Gaming gear for you to play with. This is your chance to step aboard the tour truck and test drive Dell Gaming’s premier Alienware Area-51® ALX and Alienware Area-51® desktops as well as the Area-51 m15x and Area-51 m17x notebooks. You’ll also have the opportunity to take the Dell XPS™ 630, XPS 730, XPS M1730 and XPS M1730 World of Warcraft edition for a whirl.
Getting your hands on these killer Dell Gaming systems should be enough to cure your summertime blues, but if you’re hungry for more (and of course you are), you can also check out the PMS Clan, which will be representing Alienware at QuakeCon, Penny Arcade Expo and BlizzCon. Watch in awe as they show the n00bs what an Alienware can do in the hands of a professional. Step up and test your skills against members of PMS Clan, Alienware’s officially-sponsored gaming clan, in some of today’s most popular titles.
And since it’s impossible to talk about “extreme gaming” without mentioning modding, check out the Extreme Gaming Tour Modding Contest, which offers a fully-loaded Alienware Area-51 desktop as 1st Prize.
“When it comes to high-end PC gaming rigs, Dell Gaming is known for ‘bringing it,’” says Claudina Lopez, Marketing Manager at Alienware, “and, with the Dell Intel Extreme Gaming Tour truck, we’re bringing it straight to you. Not only are we showing off some amazing, award-winning systems, this marks the first joint appearance between Alienware and PMS Clan. It’s going to be a lot of fun for all the fans out there.”
“Intel and Dell Gaming have always worked closely to provide gamers with the highest-performing equipment possible,” Doug Parker, Director of Marketing for America’s Sales and Marketing Group. “The Extreme Gaming Tour gives users a chance to experience first-hand the raw performance of Alienware and XPS systems powered by Intel processors.”
