No bullies here: screenies and info on EA Playground |
Ó
A lot of hype has been building for EA Playground, but who can blame those of us who have good playground memories that we want to relive?
Electronic Arts Canada has been tasked to develop the game, and it's off to a good start considering the emotional reactions people get just from reading the title.
EA Playground focuses on casual gamers, and it shows. Set to be released for both the Wii and Nintendo DS, the game is said to take advantage of the unique control mechanics of both systems. Some good examples are using the Wiimote to play a game of tetherball (my personal favorite playground game) or even blowing into the Nintendo DS mic to fire spitballs (another personal favorite).
The press release said that "every [version of the] game brings its own twist to the controls for the ultimate, all-ages, party game," and we actually believe it.
While EA Playground looks to be focused on the multiplayer experience, the guys at EA have said that it isn't the case. Single player mode has you exploring the playground and entering different locations, unlocking new activities, making wacky in-game friends, and collecting rewards and stickers which provide ability upgrades.
By the way the screenshots above are for the Wii, just to clear up any confusion it may cause. Be sure to keep checking back here for more updates on EA Playground.

If ea wanted to they could have part 2-5 of this game done but early 2008.
Since I went to Catholic school, my playground memories pretty much consist of mouthfuls of dirt from before they paved the playground, skinned knees from after they paved it, and of course bloody, tooth-dislodging fights.
Very good. No Bullies because watch out, bullies. You are next! Do not forgot that God is watching you, bullies!
