EA - Image 1The Game Developers Conference in San Francisco is set to begin next month but even this early, interesting details are slowly popping up. Giant game developer and publisher Electronic Arts just announced the games it will be showing off at the said conference.

And we're telling you, it's a well-selected list:
EA clarified that these games will not be displayed on the show floor. According to Eurogamer, they will be showcased in a reception running parallel to GDC. However, it is worth mentioning that EA will be a part of the main conference; EA is scheduled to discuss important topics such as creating believable AI athletes in sports games and EA Montreal's plans for new IPs.

The company is also a part of a Maxis session that will talk about how The Sims would be making its way to Wii.

So Mercenaries 2: World in Flames is on the 360

I just went to EuroGamer and it said nothing about that game on the 360. Yes it will most likely come out on the 360 but as of yet there is no info on that.

Plus any new info on if Hellgate: London will come out on the 360. Last time I heard they EA and Namco wanted the game on the 360.

This game is not on the 360, unless EA says otherwise at GDC...

sales

I really dont care what third-party title goes to any system. in the end I think all the games will be on all systems. It will really depend on first-party games that will make a system stand out. with the high cost of game development, I dont think any developers can afford to make a game for only one system, not unless they are paid to keep a game exclusive. anyway althought this is way off topic, Where can I find the ps3 U.S. sales eveyone keeps talking about the jap sales.

god that pisses me off

The fact that those games aren't even made by EA, but published by them is gay. Challenge everything my ass. More like pay them off and get rewarded everything.

Besides, EA does have 1 game to show off, Army of Two, and they're not even going to show it.
