Sony teams up with EA for exclusive deals regarding SSX, BF3 and NFS: The Run.
At Sony’s E3 press conference last night, they announced an alliance with EA for three of EA’s upcoming titles. This means the PS3 versions of SSX, Battlefield 3 and Need for Speed: The Run, will ship with exclusive content.
For SSX, PS3 owners will receive an exclusive map set on Mount Fiji in Japan while Battlefield veterans will be glad to know that the PS3 version of BF3 will be bundled with Battlefield 1943. And finally, people who pick up Need for Speed: The Run, for the PS3 will gain access to seven exclusive cars including the Bugatti Veyron.
Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
