A brief history of Electronic Arts

by Matthew Stibbe on August 28, 2006

Old EA logoI’ve been reading a very interesting history of Electronic Arts on BusinessWeek and another on Wikipedia. I sold my first game, Imperium, to EA back in 1989 and continued working with them until I left the games business in 2000. It’s like that bit of history that falls between what you read about in the school textbooks and the bit of history that you experience in your life.

I love Electronic Arts.

It’s been my favorite gaming producer since the Commodore 64 days.

It’s amazing to me how the company keeps ahead and visually advanced for so long.
