The first sound card to officially sport the Hercules brand name is their Game TheaterXP. Hercules will also be the name that all other multimedia-based products will be branded with from now on. Complete with an external breakout box, that shows the legacy of Guillemot´s HomeStudio ISIS series, the GTXP appears well equipped to do battle with Creative´s SoundBlaster Live! Platinum.
