Electronic Arts, makers of everything from cross-platform game titles such as The Sims 3 World Adventures and MADDEN NFL 11, has just bought Firemint, the makers of the gorgeous Real Racing 2 HD. This move by perennial player EA swallowing up a newcomer iOS game developer demonstrates how important iOS has become as a gaming platform.
Melbourne, Australia based Firemint’s 55 employees will continue working down under, hopefully adding to their exciting iPad-as-controller concept iPad game titles.
