Price and Availability: Sega Genesis - $59.95, June, 1993

CHICAGO, Illinois-JUNE 3,1993 -- Visitors to the Summer Consumer
Electronics Show here in Chicago are invited to Accolade's booth, #7131,
to tee off with Jack Nicklaus' Power Challenge Golf, the company's first
golf simulation for the Sega Genesis. The newest member to the most
successful line of golf simulations on the market, Jack Nicklaus' Power
Challenge Golf is developed in association with Jack Nicklaus and Jack
Nicklaus Productions. It features two Nicklaus designed courses and
fully-digitized golfers, including Jack Nicklaus himself. Jack Nicklaus'
Power Challenge Golf is scheduled to release- later this month at a
suggested retail price of $59.95.

The gameplay more than lives up to the Nicklaus standard of highest
quality. Players can challenge two of Jack's finest course designs --
water intensive English Turn Golf Club (New Orleans), home of the USF&G
Classic, and rugged Sherwood Country Club (Thousand Oaks, CA), site of the
annual Greg Norman Shark Shootout. The game features the widest variety of
golf shots, Accolade's acclaimed and easiest-to-use "Power Bar" interface,
as well as complete statistics for individual players which are updated
after every round. Players can select from a variety of options including
the ability to play alone or against 3 other human or computer controlled
opponents; compete in stroke, skins or tournament play; or practice on the
driving range and the putting green.

The program also features a Tournament mode with an option to play against
the computer, or up to a maximum of three other human players. Players can
also customize computer players so they play just like the real pros on
the tour. Using the helpful onscreen tape measure feature, players can
read the exact distance between their ball and any other object or
location on the hole. Players will find this especially useful when
deciding which club to use, based on the distance they need to smack the
ball.

The game contains music and a wide variety of digitized sound effects,
including the natural sound of the ball splashing in to the water, or
sailing onto the green. With the crowd cheering them on throughout the
game, players will feel like they have an audience witnessing their every
shot. Further, the game adjusts ball trajectories to account for club
selection and loft, as well as for terrain contours. More realistic ball
landings, rolls and bounces, along with fast, easy gameplay give players
the most complete video game golf experience available.

"My sons and I have enjoyed the competition of playing all of the Accolade
computer golf products," said Jack Nicklaus. "I'm looking forward to
playing this new video game against my sons. It has been designed to be
easy and incredibly fun to play ... exactly what golf should be."
