New Take on Fitness: Actiga's Qmotions Subsidiary to Launch Next-Gen FunFitness(TM) Controller

Actiga Corporation(OTCBB: AGAC), a leading pioneer in active video gaming products and services, today announced that Qmotions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Actiga, will launch a next-generation FunFitness™ controller during the second half of 2008.

The next-generation FunFitness controller is designed to measure running or biking body movement and translates that movement onto the video game, providing consumers with the flexibility to use it while running in place or with stationary exercise bikes. The controller requires no retrofitting of exercise equipment and is compatible with virtually all racing type games running on PCs and video game consoles. The company intends to price the controller for mass market distribution.

"Our next-gen FunFitness controller takes fitness to a new level, elevating the exercise experience to a form of entertainment," said Amro Albanna, chairman and CEO of Actiga. "It combines the thrill of virtual gaming with the added benefits of exercise as it requires full body participation."

The home fitness market continues to show steady growth with spending on fitness equipment increasing to $3.54 billion in 2006, according to the Sporting Good Manufacturers Association.

"The increase in spending on fitness equipment coupled with the shift in video gaming from a sedentary form of entertainment to an active form, positions us well for future growth opportunities," said Albanna.
