WHAT: Dave Jaffe, one of the most respected developers in the
          videogame community renowned for creating the multi-million
          selling 'Twisted Metal'(R) franchise, will meet with diehard
          game fans at EB Games' Universal CityWalk location on
          Tuesday, March 22nd to help officially launch his eagerly
          awaited new action-adventure videogame title -
          'God of War'(TM), created exclusively for the
          PlayStation(R)2 computer entertainment system. Heralded in
          early previews as one of the best looking games ever created
          for PlayStation(R)2 , 'God of War' puts players into the
          role of Kratos, an ex-Spartan warrior, as a story unfolds in
          ancient times with various plot twists that take them
          through explosive aggressive gameplay, fused with traps,
          stunts, and story-driven puzzles. Featuring an hour of
          cinematic sequences and a deep combat system built around
          unique double chain blade weapons permanently fixed on
          Kratos, 'God of War' takes players through various
          environments that will have them fighting fierce enemies,
          swinging on ropes, scaling mountain cliffs, swimming through
          rivers and sliding down zip lines, resulting in a
          one-of-a-kind action-packed Greek mythology adventure.

          EB Games, the leading global specialty retailer of
          interactive entertainment products, will sell 'God of War'
          for PlayStation(R)2 at 1,500 stores throughout the U.S.
