On behalf of the Advanced Media Network and in partnership with Kombo.com, I would like to introduce the Beta launch of Sports Joystick. Sports Joystick is a sports-gamer's dream come true. As a fully focused informational portal that gives sports fans and gamers in-depth news, previews, reviews daily, SportsJoystick.com's unique perspective on coverage allows our specific audience to fully appreciate their needs and anticipations at the same time.

Unlike similar gaming sites, Sports Joystick employs some of the most talented sports writers in the business with an unprecedented knack for games. They may be gamers like you, but our staff is filled with former athletes and rabid journalists with an tremendous knowledge of all of the happenings in both sports and benchmarked sports video-games. Whether it be Football, Baseball, Basketball, Soccer, Golf, Boxing, Horse-Racing, Rugby or Curling, Sports Joystick can still offer so much more.

With offices centered in the San Francisco Bay Area, with one of the most populated sports fanbases in the United States, Sports Joystick will also bring you direct coverage from some of the hottest gaming events and their impact on the sports and head-to-head competition, including Madden Challenge Tournaments, the X Games, Maddenpalooza, NBA Live Challenge, Major League Gaming, World Series of Videogames, and NVISION 08 just to name a few.

Always looking for the grand slam, Sports Joystick's mission is to go beyond what is needed to enhance the gamer lifestyle for the hardcore sports fan. Want to find out how good Gilbert Arenas is in Halo? Does John Madden actually play his own video-games? What is Jonathan "Fatal1ty" Wendel up to? The answers to all of these questions will only be found right here on Sports Joystick.

We work hard and we play hard. So slide on into your home base over at Sports Joystick.com and let us know what you think! There's much more coming. It's time to step up to the plate.

Control your inner-athlete; Sports Joystick has arrived.

I simply cannot wait to see what my Raiders do this year (lowered expectations to the EXTREME).

Great to have you back, Ray, and with the NFL season starting right about now, there couldn't be a better time for SportsJoystick to come along!
