Analog Devices' Audio Rendering Software Brings Realistic Roars to Title's Motor Bikes

Santa Clara, CA., February 19, 2002 - Analog Devices, Inc. (NYSE: ADI) today announced that its advanced audio rendering technology, SoundMAX(r) SPX, has been incorporated into Infogrames, Inc.'s (Nasdaq: IFGM) new PC game Moto Racer 3. Featuring game audio technologies that generate "animated audio" -- interactive, event-driven sounds that respond to game physics, environmental variables and user input -- SoundMAX SPX brings hyper-realistic sound to the action-packed motorcycle racing title. Developed by Delphine Software International, Moto Racer 3 shipped to stores today with an MSRP of $39.95.

"SoundMAX SPX gave us the ability to create extremely true-to-life bike sounds," said Bertrand Gibert, director of development, Delphine Software International. "We were able to integrate real recordings of real bikes to make Moto Racer 3 as exciting aurally as it is visually."

"With a large number of different motorcycles that all require a variety of sounds for speed and steering alterations, Moto Racer 3 is a perfect title for SoundMAX SPX implementation," said Beth Doherty, Director of Developer Relations, Analog Devices, Inc. "Delphine and Infogrames did a great job with our technology, creating some of the most intense audio effects I've ever heard in a racing game."

Moto Racer 3 is poised to become the benchmark for all future bike-racing games. The game, featuring a wide choice of gameplay options including speed, motocross, supercross, freestyle, trial and traffic, allows players to race on 15 of the world's most prestigious courses.
