Pepper Roni's Back as EA and LEGO Interactive Ship Island Xtreme Stunts for Multiple Platforms REDWOOD CITY, Calif. - Nov. 27, 2002 - Quiet on the set... and action! Join the excitement and take on the role of stuntman extraordinaire, Pepper Roni, in Island Xtreme Stunts from LEGO Interactive and Electronic Arts (Nasdaq:ERTS - News). The game, geared toward young gamers, has shipped for Nintendo's Game Boy® Advance and the PlayStation® 2 entertainment system. The PC version will ship on December 3. On a high energy movie set, players can drive, fly, jet ski, motorbike and sky surf through five extreme stunt action sub-games taking them all over LEGO® Island. A skate park allows Pepper to hone his skateboarding skills with eight basic grabs plus spins, fakies and grinds. Players can explore by foot, skateboard or (with the right driving license) in any of the LEGO vehicles available to drive or fly. All of the vehicles are based on the popular LEGO Island Xtreme Stunts toy line. If all the stunt action gets to be too much there are plenty of things to do just by exploring the Island itself. For starters, talking to the friendly Islanders will lead players to discover more than 20 quests. Also, hidden around the Island are collectible character trading cards not to mention all of the LEGO bricks, which are the basic building blocks for "Brickimals" -- cool LEGO animals. In addition, a favorite feature with younger fans is "toying" -- the ability to change LEGO Island objects at the touch of a button! The Game Boy Advance version focuses on four of the five stunt action games combined with four additional puzzle games, including Pizza Overload and Trouble in Store. There also is a multiplayer option in four of the mini-games with two of them accommodating up to four players. The PlayStation 2, PC and Game Boy Advance versions of Island Xtreme Stunts were developed by UK-based Silicon Dreams Ltd. and are rated "E" for Everyone. The PlayStation 2 console version carries an MSRP price of $39.95, the PC MSRP is $19.95 and the Game Boy Advance MSRP is $29.95.
