IT sees an opportunity for expanding their expertise with adult-oriented video entertainment and begins the long journey to become a licensed manufacturer of Class-III electronic gaming machines. Annual course updates, with additional features and hardware improvements, have helped to maintain a passionate and growing player base for over 10 years. Wireless ITNet connectivity, instant access to stats, more prize contest formats, and customizable golfers make the game more accessible to a wider audience. The fifth and most recent version of Golden Tee launches with dramatic improvements in hardware, software and game features. Silver Strike receives 2 version updates over the next few years, with the latest version, Silver Strike LIVE, still in operation in thousands of locations across the country. Silver Strike Bowling, IT's fourth generation of video bowling games, joins the lineup with spectacular 3D game play and ITNet compatibility. Big Buck Hunter is also introduced as a sister title, with ITNet game play and skill tournaments added. More than $50 million in cash prizes are awarded through skill tournaments over its 5 year life cycle. The fourth generation of the popular Golden Tee Golf franchise explodes across North America, England, Australia and New Zealand, on an expanded online system now called ITNet. The reliable system and procedures resonate with players and machine owners alike and moves Golden Tee Golf into an unprecedented entertainment category.

IT pioneers a method of communicating with thousands of game units across the country to offer automated skill-based contests with cash prizes.

The third version of Golden Tee Golf debuts with robust custom hardware, better graphics and gameplay, and an all-new cabinet that catches on early and opens the door for location-based video entertainment.

IT develops and markets over 15 unique coin-op titles under the Strata brand, including Strata Bowling, Arlington Horse Racing, Golden Tee Golf II, Time Killers and BloodStorm. The original coin-op golf game enjoys a modest success, and positions the trackball as a unique control device for future game versions and titles. The success of this title, particularly in street locations, sets the stage for future coin-op titles. IT develops and manufactures an inexpensive hardware platform and unique game play for IT's first coin-op game, Capcom Bowling. IT is founded by Elaine Hodgson and Richard Ditton in Rolling Meadows, Illinois, developing a wide range of entertainment products for a variety of platforms and publishers.
