Who made the list? Medal of Honor, Dead Space 2, Crysis 2, Skate 3, plus EA Sports offerings like FIFA, Madden and Tiger Woods.
It wasn’t just full title releases though that will help spin the balance sheets into the green for EA as PDLC got a major wink - that’s paid downloadable content. ”What we’re talking about with Electronic Arts is focusing and building the most profitable possible business out of (our) collection of properties,” said CEO Riccitiello, reports Kotaku.
EA’s fiscal 2011 begins April 1st, 2010 which is totally not ominous at all. Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Mass Effect 2, and Dragon Age: Origins were all touted for their PDLC potential with good cause - Dragon Age has cleared 1m DLC buys already.
”These are ongoing businesses. It wouldn’t surprise me over time - it probably won’t happen with these editions - to generate more in PDLC then in the package.” EA is a big time believer in the digital marketplace, seeing it overshadow retail soon enough.
The Sims also of course got a mention, but that’s expected. Has EA got anything on the 2010 books that you’re interested in, videogamer?
