Verizon and Sprint to Sell EA Games
Electronic Arts has signed a deal with Verizon and Sprint to publish their cellphone games on their networks. This is a nail in the side of the leading cellphone game player, JAMDAT."It indicates a potential for increasing competition against JAMDAT," said Moors & Cabot analyst Jason Willey. He said the Electronic Arts deals were not surprising but may have dampened recent rumors that the company might buy JAMDAT.
