GreyStone Technology Premieres Arcade Attraction,
XS-G(TM), at Amusement Showcase International
SAN DIEGO, March 23 /PRNewswire/ -- XS-G(TM), a new, PC based, real-time 3D interactive coin-operated arcade attraction, will premiere at the Amusement Showcase International trade show at the Sands Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada, from March 26 through March 28, GreyStone Technology, Incorporated, announced today.
XS-G is an exhilarating, high-speed, multi-player canyon race between futuristic armed aircraft. It challenges the players' physical coordination and tactical decision making abilities, as well as encouraging both cooperation and competition between players. XS-G
