So it seems that Electronic Arts and legendary director Steven Spielberg have teamed up to work on a trifecta of games... Great business move for EA and Spielberg gets to dip his hands into another game, but that's not really the biggest story here--at least not from my point of view. The real story that everyone should be taking note of is that this deal means three NEW games based on NEW properties will actually make an appearance in EA's product lineup in the future. This coming from a company that has been playing it safe with sequel upon sequel and big-budget licenses. Are they only willing to go into unexplored territory if the biggest name in film direction comes onboard? Perhaps it's just one wonderful step forward for the company. I sure hope so.
