EXPERIENCE THE GLORY AND SHAME OF CLUB SOCCER IN EA'S FIFA 07

New online Interactive Leagues let you live the emotional highs and lows

of your club, 24/7

REDWOOD CITY, Calif. - August 4, 2006 - With the 2006 FIFA World Cup(tm)

over and the glamour of international soccer fading fast, players like

Ronaldinho, Rooney and Kaka have now gone back to their day jobs of

winning glory for their club in FIFA 07 from Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:

ERTS). From the first whistle, FIFA 07 throws you into the

rollercoaster ride of the soccer season as fans of the franchise live

out the intense stadium atmosphere of every home and away match when it

ships to stores in North America on October 3, 2006.

FIFA 07 delivers complete authenticity with licenses for all the world's

top leagues, including MLS and Mexican 1st Division in North America,

and 26 others from over 20 nations. This year, you have the power to

shape your club's destiny in the EA SPORTS(tm) Interactive Leagues, a

new online mode that enables you to pit your club against supporters of

your real-world opponents. The online interactive leagues feature the

F.A. Premier League, Bundesliga, French League and the Mexican 1st

Division. Experience the future of online gaming as you play your games

according to the real-world schedule. When they play, you play. Track

your team's progress as the aggregate results determine your club's

position in the league table. Now you actually take to the pitch for the

glory of your club. This is the season where you make the difference!

"We are still innovating the gameplay in our current-gen game, and this

year, the new online Interactive Leagues will bring together soccer fans

from around the world and allow them to experience the glory and shame

of their clubs, 24/7," said Joe Booth, producer of FIFA 07.

This year, new intelligent A.I. ensures that your 11 men on the pitch

make realistic decisions, finding space and passing like professionals.

A complete overhaul of the game engine now means that you have to employ

real world tactics, make split-second decisions and think like a player

in order to win matches. Watch as your players jostle and collide

realistically while trying to win balls. Experience the realism of the

world's superstars, who come to life with signature moves and authentic

playing styles and a more sophisticated shooting mechanic that gives you

greater control to produce finesse shots. Plus you now have the ability

to apply topspin or backspin to the ball for more creative set-pieces.

Take on the updated and improved challenge of the Manager Mode. Player

values and wages have been tuned to be even more realistic. Managerial

decisions have even more tangible effects on player performance and

welfare. Smarter CPU decisions mean rival managers are even more

strategic in their own pursuit of silverware. Experience the emotional

highs & lows of your club 24hrs a day, seven days a week with new

connectivity between a PlayStation(r)2 and a PSP(r) (PlayStation(r)

Portable) system that enables you to begin your managerial career on

either console and continue your campaign anywhere.
