EA Mobile launched Sports Link - Image 1  


Electronic Arts, one of the world's top game developers, has been making efforts to take advantage of the opportunities that the mobile gaming platform brings. EA Mobile has recently expressed its desire to connect mobile players in a sort of mobile gaming community.

We found out in an IGN news that EA Mobile has just announced the debut of EA Sports Link on Cingular. EA Sports Link is a mobile site dedicated to sports fans wanting news, stats, and sports-related site contents such as wallpapers and ringtones. There will also be links on the site to other EA Mobile Sports offerings sites, such as Tiger Woods PGA Tour and NASCAR 07.

EA's ultimate aim is to create a sports community where fans can interact with each other both inside and outside EA Mobile's sports games. Says Michael Marchetti, EA Mobile's VP and Chief Operating Officer,

We believe that the mobile phone is a perfect platform on which to build sports-themed services and provide content for the ever-growing community of EA Sports fans.


Indeed, the GDC 2007 Mobile Talk's last words hold true: social oriented content is the future of mobile.
