Hercules - Game Theater XP

Previous Next
1:06 PM - 09/25/2001 by David Stellmack

The Hercules Game Theater XP sound card by Guillemot takes aim squarely at the Sound Blaster Live with Live Drive sound card. The design of the Game Theater XP is unique in the fact that Guillemot used an external breakout box. This external breakout box is an interesting way of adding all of the additional inputs and outputs that are provided by competitor Creative's Live Drive.

The external breakout box that Hercules calls the "External Rack" adds both new function and features when compared to the Creative Live Drive.
