Electronic Arts announced today NFL STREET 2 from the EA SPORTS BIG(TM) brand
will be on store shelves by December 26. The original NFL STREET sold over a
million copies and introduced gamers to playing football with style and flash
and NFL STREET 2 has reinvented itself by dramatically changing the way the
game is played with the new game modes and the gameplay itself.

NFL STREET 2 carries on the popular legacy of combining real football action
with cool, stylish plays and adds a whole new dimension to gameplay with new
high flyin’ football that includes wall moves, big air and style catches for
the very first time in a football game. Receivers can now get airborne up to
15 feet high, run off the walls, change passing lanes by running the QB up a
building, and take advantage of eye-popping wall jukes and all-new hurdles.
Players will descend on Bay City’s 10 new environments to build their teams,
their reps, and their battle plans one field at a time.

One of the highlights of NFL STREET 2 is Street Events, short mini-game styled
offerings that include Crush the Carrier, Jump Ball Battle, Open Field Showdown,
2 Minute Challenge, 4 on 4 and Quick Strike. With the all-new Own the City mode
you can create your player utilizing an all new player creation system, master
new skills and hit the streets. You are able to recruit the best players as
you build a reputation and dominate the competition, taking over new neighborhoods
and defending your turf until you Own the City. Once you build your player to
legendary status you will be able to import him into Madden NFL 2006. With each
area that you dominate you can take it over as your own and eventually earn
the chance to take on hip hop artist Xzibit.

The EA TRAX titles for the NFL STREET 2 soundtrack include tracks from Xzibit,
Papa Roach, Nas, Sum 41 and the Ying Yang Twins. Also featured are exclusive tracks
from Planet Asia, Bishop Lamont, Red Tape and Royce da 5′9 & Kid Vicious which
can only be heard in the game.

Xbox(R) video game system from Microsoft and the Nintendo GameCube(TM). It is
