MCV/DEVELOP News, events, research and jobs from the games industry
With Mass Effect 3, FIFA Street, The Sims 3 Showtime and Tiger Woods 13 all nearing release, EA has released details of exactly how consumers can get hold of its impressive upcoming roster.
The move, of course, comes following the ongoing standoff between EA and retailer GAME that will see the UK’s biggest retailer not stocking new EA titles for the foreseeable future.
‘It’s unfortunate that GAME is having challenges with its suppliers,” an EA statement read. However consumers have many alternatives both in-store and online. Our first priority is to inform our consumers of the many other retailers carrying our games. We don’t anticipate any delay in getting our titles to market’
