ELECTRONIC ARTS ANNOUNCES TWO PLATFORM GAMES TO SHIP IN THE FALL JAMES POND
III: OPERATION STARFISH

CHICAGO, IL, June 3, 1993 - Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:ERTS) has announced the
release of James Pond III: Operation Starfish for the Sega Genesis, the
fourth in the line of James Pond Products.

The evil Dr. Maybe has returned to create havoc in the world. He has a new
and evil plan: mining yogurts, ice cream and cheese from the moon's rich
mineral supplies. F.I.5.H. has discovered his plans to monopolize the
world's dairy market and have sent their top agent, James Pond, into space
to deal with the problem.

Pond's mission is to make his way across the moon - avoiding many natural
hazards, bizarre lifeforms and traps. He has to rescue three trapped
F.I.5.H. agents (who will pin him on his quest) and eventually make his
way to the cheese mines, where he will face his arch foe, Dr. Maybe.

Pond has a number of abilities and power-ups to use on his travels. In
addition to his powerful jumping, ducking and running abilities, he can
use suction boots (which allow him to walk on any surface ), a fruit suit
(which doubles as a deadly attack weapon, allowing him to roll onto
enemies to destroy them), skis, rocket boots and anti-gravity rocket
boots. He can also drive a lunar buggy, a drilling machine, a giant
moon-worm and a mini rocket. Pond also has his new sidekick to call upon
in times of need, Finnius Frog.

James Pond III: Operation Starfish will be available in late fall at a
price to be announced.
