                        INFORMATION STATEMENT SUPPLEMENT
                                  June 2, 2000

         This Information Statement Supplement (this "Supplement") is being
furnished on or about June 2, 2000 by Infogrames, Inc. (formerly GT Interactive
Software Corp.), a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), to the stockholders of
record of the Company as of the close of business on May 8, 2000 (the "Record
Date"). This Supplement should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
Information Statement of the Company dated May 12, 2000 (the "Information
Statement").

         The Information Statement describes a recent amendment to the Company's
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of
Incorporation") to effect a one-for-five reverse stock split of the Company's
common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Amendment"). The Company planned
to distribute the Information Statement to stockholders on May 12, 2000 and to
effect the Amendment at the close of business on June 2, 2000. It has recently
come to the attention of the Company that stockholders have not received the
Information Statement as planned.

         In order to afford the stockholders of the Company a sufficient
opportunity to review the accompanying Information Statement, on June 2, 2000,
the Board of Directors of the Company and the Company's majority stockholder,
California U.S. Holdings, Inc., approved an amendment to the Certificate of
Incorporation which, in effect, postpones the effectiveness of the reverse stock
split until the close of business on June 26, 2000 (the "New Amendment"). A copy
of the New Amendment is attached to this Supplement as Exhibit A. The Record
Date for the reverse stock split remains May 8, 2000. The Information Statement
is hereby amended to the extent set forth in this Supplement.

                                        By Order of the Board of Directors
