Collectible Card Game To Be Exhibited At International Consumer Electronics Show
TM Media Group, Inc. announced that it will be attending this year's International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada and will be exhibiting its new online video and collectible card game, Street Cred at the Sands Expo and Convention Center, offering the Company a vital opportunity to reach out to industry professionals and joint marketing partners. TMMG will also have Manaj, daughter of Hip Hop pioneer Dr. Dre, make a public appearance at this year's show. Manaj is the first rap artist signed to TM Media Group, and also appears in Street Cred.
The International Consumer Electronics Show is the world's largest annual tradeshow for consumer technology and America's largest annual tradeshow of any kind. The event is held at various locations throughout the city, including the Las Vegas Convention Center, Sands Expo and Convention Center, and the Las Vegas Hilton, where over 2,000 exhibitors will be showing off the latest in Electronic Gaming, Mobile Electronics, Robotics, Retail Resources, and more.
"The Consumer Electronics Show is one of the biggest venues for electronic gaming in the world and we look forward to showcasing Street Cred to a very large audience. We believe this year's show will be a launch pad for a new era of online and collectible card games worldwide," stated Matt Harmon, CEO of TM Media Group, Inc.
Street Cred is the first and only online video and collectible card game to incorporate urban motifs, settings, images and celebrities. The marketing of Street Cred will follow a proven and successful model of online game delivery with a collectible card game component. The Company intends to continuously launch new online and offline add-on products simultaneously. This course enables users to play the game online initially as a free version with in-game advertising and then subsequently on a subscription basis, as well as having the ability to purchase trading cards in stores. TM Media's goal is to ensure a long product cycle for Street Cred by creating add-ons and upgrades, as well as by establishing and supporting organized tournaments and community based professional 'Street Cred players.' Additionally, the Company intends to utilize and capitalize on ancillary marketing opportunities by licensing celebrities for its card imaging, as well as designing customized cards by top industry artists.
If you enjoy interactive games, does Street Cred sound like a successful idea? The cards seem to have the potential of becoming a collection of value. If you play this, organize your collectible cards on iTaggit and let us know how the idea turns out. For more information from the original release, click here.

A Fun Story Emphasizing The Importance Of Organizing Your Collectibles
Everyone has collectibles they value, and can recognize the little pang in your heart when one is misplaced. That is why we strive to get across the importance of organizing your collectibles so that you will never have one go missing again. Now, there will always be extraordinary circumstances that might happen, and for this original story in particular, it all came to a happy ending.
More than two decades after Aaron Giles lost his identity bracelet, he's finding how it was discovered tough to swallow. A meat cutter at Olson Locker in Fairmont came across the shiny object in a chicken gizzard and saw a name, address and phone number engraved on it. Giles had lived in Fairmont as a child and played hide-and-seek and other games with his brothers in their grandfather's barn near Sherburn. "I would spend most of my time out at his farm, and that's the only place I can think of that I would have lost it," Giles said about his bracelet on Thursday. The 31-year-old said he thinks the bracelet was lost when he was 4 or 5. The barn was dismantled a few years ago, and Giles thinks his bracelet was embedded in materials used to construct another barn in Elmore, about 45 miles away. The bracelet was found in a chicken that came from an Elmore farm. Giles, who now lives in Gloucester, Mass., said he received his old bracelet in September. "It was in pretty immaculate shape. Everything was working on it, and all the engravings on it were still legible," Giles said. "It was quite the surprise." Giles said he expects the bracelet to stay in his family for many years to come. "I have no plans on trying to lose it again."
I hope Giles' story brought you a smile for the coming weekend. If you happen on some old, perhaps lost, heirlooms, and need your collection valued, don't hesitate to add them into our “What's My Item Worth” section, and include your object's story in the notes for us to smile about.
