ThrustMaster Inc. (Nasdaq:TMSR - news) , which makes computer game joysticks, rocketed ahead $6 7/16, or 133.8%, to $11 1/4 on news that might herald the future of electronic gaming. Today, the company unveiled its new "Talk 'n' Play" software that allows up to four people to talk on the Internet while playing computer games. Some game designers believe multi-player action piped through the Internet is the wave of the future, which is why id Software -- makers of the wildly popular corridor-shooter Quake games -- plans to focus Quake Arena, third in its mega-selling series, on that type of group experience. Arena, to be distributed by Activision (Nasdaq:ATVI - news) , is expected sometime next year. While ThrustMaster's new software is downloadable now, a retail version that will come with a hands-free headset and 14 games will be available for about $30 in January. "Talk 'n' Play" uses technology from Intel Corp. (Nasdaq:INTC - news) , which improved $2 5/8 to $118 15/16 today.
