**Electronic Arts Ships Highly-Anticipated Tomorrow Never Dies For The Playstation

World Renowned Secret Agent 007 Bond, James Bond Arrives on the Leading Console System for the First Time**

REDWOOD CITY, Calif., November 16, 1999 - Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: ERTS), the world s largest interactive entertainment software company, announces the release of Tomorrow Never Dies the highly-anticipated James Bond title for the PlayStation game console from MGM Interactive. Tomorrow Never Dies is a third-person action title that builds off the plot of the blockbuster movie bearing the same name, while adding new twists and turns through a series of unique gameplay features for a complete Bond experience. This PlayStation-only title marks the first time the James Bond franchise is available for the leading console system.

We are very excited to bring James Bond to the PlayStation, says Albert Penello, product manager at Electronic Arts. The franchise is a natural for the PlayStation platform given its compelling characters, action-packed sequences and ingenious gadgets. It is without a doubt that Tomorrow Never Dies delivers the most complete and exciting Bond experience to PlayStation gamers.

In the game, the player takes on the role of James Bond as he tries to thwart megalomaniac media mogul Elliot Carver. A wealthy media baron, Carver is attempting to start World War III by convincing the British and Chinese that they are making hostile advances towards each other. Through a series of missions and objectives, as well as help from recognizable movie characters, Bond steps into action to expose Carver s evil plan. Players will encounter several Artificial Intelligence (AI) characters from the movie including Paris, Q and Dr. Kaufman, as well as new AI enemy types that react to audible and visible cues. Gamers will also take on the role of Wai Lin, the sexy Chinese secret agent, in a more advanced level as well as seeing her assist Bond as an AI character in other missions.

Tomorrow Never Dies delivers a well-balanced Bond experience through its unique gameplay approach. The game offers three different game modes - on foot, driving and skiing - as well as a third-person perspective from which the player fully sees the fluid movement of the Bond character when executing moves and techniques. Such techniques include a 360-degree tuck and roll, dive and fire attacks and stealth moves. The game features a total of ten different mission levels, comprised of sub-levels that vary between the different game modes. Each of the levels are set in a variety of locations based on and/or inspired by the movie, including Military Outpost, Arms Bazaar, Carver Media Center, Hotel Atlantic, Ski Ridge and Stealth Boat in Ha Long Bay. In addition, players will see a series of in-game cinematic transitions, using real-time 3-D and footage from the film.

True to the Bond movie legacy, the game features more than a dozen fully interactive gadgets and weapons, including such Q-inspired masterpieces as cufflink lasers, sticky mine detonators, rocket launchers, satellite up-link cameras and laser painting missile targets. Special weapons effects include infrared goggles to see in the dark, zooming first-person sniper rifles for long distance targeting and a spy camera to take photos.

Tomorrow Never Dies for the PlayStation is co-published by Electronic Arts and developed by Black Ops Entertainment, pursuant to an agreement with Danjaq, LLC and Eon Productions Limited, the producer of 19 James Bond films including Tomorrow Never Dies. The game is single-player only and offers two levels of difficulty, Agent and 007, to help cater to gamers of all different types. In addition, Tomorrow Never Dies is Dual Shock compatible.
