locations is  straightforward,"  said Ken Gruber,  chief  financial  officer for
Enteractive.  "In cities  where we identify  complementary  Web  development  or
consulting  firms, we will seek to acquire or partner with them.  Otherwise,  we
will  look  forward  to  opening  an  office  and  building  the  business  in a
traditional manner."

we are now  initiating,  we will maintain a core group focused on maximizing the
potential of the Picture  Perfect Golf series,  the Sacred  Mirror of Kofun,  an
interactive adventure game, and other entertainment products,  while selectively
