IGPX For Playstation2 Races Through the Finish Line and Into Retail Stores

IGPX(TM) FOR PLAYSTATION(R)2 SYSTEM RACES THROUGH
THE FINISH LINE AND INTO RETAIL STORES

Combat Racing Game Based on Original Cartoon Network Series
Now Available in North America

SANTA CLARA, Calif., (September 13, 2006) – Leading video game
publisher and developer Namco Bandai Games America Inc. announced today that
IGPX(TM) for the
PlayStation(R)2 computer entertainment system is now available in
retail stores across the country.

In the year 2049, extreme sports are taken to a whole new level with an
ultra high-speed, team battle race called the Immortal Grand Prix
(IGPX). Based on the hit animated series created exclusively for the Cartoon
Network's Toonami Sunday LINE-up, this unique combination of combat and
racing draws players into the fast-paced, cut-throat world of Immortal
Grand Prix, a wicked battle of tactics, team work and lightning speed
reactions.

“IGPX is about giving players the freedom to have fun, whether they're
playing through the game's multiple game modes or customizing their own
unique IG Machines with a slew of parts and accessories,” said Naruo
Uchida, Vice President of Localization at Namco Bandai Games. “The
unique combination of high speed racing, heated team battles, and immersive
customization brings an incredible amount of depth to IGPX.”

Piloting IG Machines, teams of three must race through twisting courses
at speeds of up-to-350 miles per hour. Competing on over 70
roller-coaster like tracks, players must avoid obstacles and battle against
opponents to bring Team Satomi to victory. Being the fastest does not
necessarily guarantee winning; players will have to utilize both devastating
team attacks and keen racing strategy in order to truly emerge
victorious. Players can gain an edge over their opponents by enhancing their IG
machines with over 100 customizable parts that can enhance their attack
power and performance. Square off against over 15 of the world's most
highly rated IGPX teams, and help Team Satomi become the champions of
the Immortal Grand Prix. In addition to the thrilling race mode, players
will also have the choice to compete in numerous other modes, including
Battle Royale and the IGPX Festival.

Developed by Sting, IGPX is rated E10+ for “Everyone 10 and older” by
the ESRB and carries a suggested MSRP of $39.99.
