The lid's been lifted on EA's upcoming Wii game, EA Playground. And yes, EA is part of the game title. I could tell you all about it, but executive producer Dave McCarthy does a much better job of it:

EA Playground is all about capturing the sheer fun of being a kid. We've designed a dream playground full of interesting characters, cool collectables, and most importantly, a mix of easy to pick up and incredibly fun playground games. There are some classic favorites in there along with some new twists. It's all packaged together in a meaningful single player "campaign" to play your way through the schoolyard.

Anyways, thanks EA, another pointless collection of minigames is JUST what the Wii needs right now. Luke Plunkett
