Growing possibilities

Newport Beach resident Loren Kaiser, in conjunction with his brother
Curtis Kaiser and Avi Dor El, have created a technology that allows
people to play PC games on a console hooked up to a television rather
than to a computer.
“DISC has solved the ‘chicken and egg’ problem by creating
DISCover, a game console that plays unmodified PC games,” Kaiser
said. “No additional development is required to launch a console with
more games than PlayStation2, Xbox, and GameCube combined.”
With a proprietary “drop and play” technology, Kaiser eliminates
the hassles of dealing with PCs and software installation.
“The DISCover PC Game Console has an abundance of special features
that set it apart from its wannabe competitors. It has a powerful
operating system, 3D audio capabilities, [high-resolution graphics]
and an affordable price,” Kaiser said.
DISCover’s “drop and play” technology allows a Pentium-based game
console to play thousands of PC games. The user doesn’t have to
install and run a computer program just to play a game.
“As a game console, DISCover is connected to a TV, not to a
computer monitor. To play any one of thousands of PC games on TV, you
simply drop the game in the DISCover and play,” Kaiser said.
PC gamers can finally take advantage of the same state-of-the-art
audio and video components families use when watching television and
movies in the comfort of their living rooms.
DISCover PC Game Console was unveiled at the Electronic
Entertainment Expo, or the E3 Gaming Show, in Los Angeles in May.
