Industry: Entertainment

Press Release Summary: Starting immediately, the mobile phone game developer
FISHLABS will also offer a selection of their games via the advertising-financed
distribution platforms from Greystripe. Now that the deal has been signed, the first
to be available at Greystripe are the three award-winning games Galaxy on FireT,
Planet RidersT, and Tank RaidT.

Press Release Body: FISHLABS, a leading developer of premium 3D mobile phone games,
offers its games for download worldwide with a marketing system of more than 160
well-known network providers. The Hamburg-based company's mobile phone games are
distinguished by their premium game quality, which is comparable to that of PC or
console games. Furthermore, FISHLABS is the first direct provider to allow their
customers the simple and free delivery of their mobile phone games via e-mail.

Greystripe, based in San Francisco, is the first in-game advertising network for
mobile end devices and the first international, advertising-financed mobile games
distribution platform. The cooperation between FISHLABS and Greystripe will start
with three games. In Galaxy on FireT, players support humanity in their battle
against the bloodthirsty alien Vossk. With spectacular 3D graphics, an exciting
story, and an extensive trading system, the game received top marks from all the
mobile phone game magazines. In Planet RidersT, you can run hair-raising races as a
death-defying pilot on three-dimensional, open courses with a wide variety of jets
from army surplus and worn-out spaceships. Real fans can race against each other via
Bluetooth in the multi-player mode. Tank RaidT, the tricky game with the comic
design, appeals to a broad target group and is tremendous fun for everyone who ever
wanted to fire away as a tank commander.

"The deal with Greystripe is very interesting for us, because the advertising-based
model works especially well for high-quality games with longer playing times and a
correspondingly large number of sessions. In Galaxy on FireT alone, some players by
now have more than 50 hours playing time," says Michael Schade, CEO of FISHLABS
Entertainment GmbH. "In addition, for the advertising-financed sales model of
Greystripe, a large marketing budget has less to do with the success or failure of a
game than do the popularity of a game and how often it is played. The marketing
channels through Greystripe thus allow us to market our games effectively for a
longer period of time."
"Our partnership with FISHLABS further demonstrates Greystripe's commitment to
bringing the highest quality games to both GameJump.com and our other 75+ catalog
syndication partners such as Peperoni, Myxertones, Samsung, Simyo and Zedge," said
Erica Chriss, VP Business Development at Greystripe. "FISHLABS 3D games are
well-known throughout the industry for pushing the envelope on technology and we are
honored to be working with them."
