Will Wright departing EA
EA has recently released a statement detailing the departure of video game developer legend, Will Wright after a near 12 year gig at the company. Wright fans need not be discouraged as he will go on to form a new studio called Stupid Fun Club which hopes to put out new games, toys, and even movies.
EA has bought a stake of the company giving both they and Wright the title of main shareholders.
If you don’t know who Will Wright is, he created a little thing called The Sims which went on to become the best selling PC game series of all time netting over 100 million units sold.
