IT'S GOOD TO BE FIRST!

—The Behemoth Ships Exclusive Handmade Trophies for Top "Alien Hominid HD" Players on Xbox Live Arcade—

San Diego, CA, May 3rd, 2007- Independent game and toy developer The Behemoth announced today the first shipment of exclusive handmade trophies honoring the top players of Alien Hominid® HD on Xbox LIVE® Arcade. Xbox LIVE Arcade on the Xbox 360 is the premier destination for digitally distributed, high definition original and classic games.

The trophies, built with love and elbow grease at the developer's studio, are being mailed out to players who have scaled the heights of the Alien Hominid HD leaderboards.

"We wanted to find a way to recognize the top players of Alien Hominid HD," said Alien Hominid HD producer John Baez. "Making some spiffy trophies here in the office from genuinely simulated gold seemed like just the ticket."

The trophies are customized individually for each player, with their Gamertag, high score and date etched into the trophy's base. The select few who manage to maintain the top position for a combined total of three weeks will be catapulted into the Behemoth Hall of Fame, where they will bask in the light of gamer stardom forever; or, at least, for as long as The Behemoth keeps the Hall of Fame posted on its website.

The construction process of the trophies can be followed online at www.thebehemoth.com/trophies.html. Further information on the competition, along with a complete rule set, is available at www.alienhominid.com/leaderboards.
