Conspiracy Entertainment Holdings Inc., a developer, publisher and marketer of interactive entertainment software in North America and Western Europe, announced today it has entered into a distribution agreement with Eidos Interactive Ltd., one of the world's leading publishers and developers of entertainment software. Eidos will publish the Conspiracy's highly-anticipated billiards simulation video game, Pocket Pool, exclusively on the PSP system. Pocket Pool is scheduled to hit retailers on April 18, 2007.

Advanced AI and real world physics make Pocket Pool the most realistic simulator on the market. The game features 13 scintillating pool games including 9 ball, 8 ball Rotation, Black Jack and Snooker. A player's success in the pool halls will be rewarded by un-lockable videos and pixel-perfect image galleries of "Dream Models" taken by the web's premier glamour photographer J. Stephen Hicks.

Sirus Ahmadi, president of Conspiracy Entertainment, said, "Eidos is a publisher with an outstanding track record of video game releases including Lara Croft Tomb Raider and Hitman. We are very excited to benefit from Eidos' established distribution network and expertise in launching the hottest new video games. Together, our companies are well-positioned to capitalize on the rapidly-growing video gaming audience throughout North America."

"Eidos has a strong distribution background that positions us favorably to quickly capture sales beginning in the second quarter of 2007," said Keith Tanaka, chief financial officer of Conspiracy Entertainment.

"Pocket Pool is a game that can stand alone as a realistic billiard simulator, however sprinkle in some sex appeal and now you have a true gaming treat," said Eidos, Inc. Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Robert Lindsey.

"The PlayStation Portable is a great handheld platform for mature audiences," said Marketing Manager, Kevin Gill, Eidos, Inc. "Pocket Pool is a game designed to tap into the desires of a dominant male audience, providing players with a fun and sexy game play experience."

This is what I don't understand... IF you are aiming for a game that includes sex appeal, etc., then WHY put it out on the PSP? Men are visually stimulated, so why not put it out on the 360 and PS3, with very high quality visual "sex appeal"? I'm just saying, if you do it, do it right!
