"A lot of people think 'EA2D' is about graphics, because obviously the '2D,' but the inspiration was: We wanted to get back to small teams, core gameplay. We had this manifesto at EA when it was founded, all about that -- and about making people cry through video games. So very player-focused; 'back to our roots' gameplay; and then not worry so much about the number of pixels we're pushing onto the screen.
"So that was the genesis of the name, and then some fabulous people at EA did this logo for us, which captured the spirit perfectly."
Dragon Age Legends is playable on Facebook. Fancy Pants Adventures is due on XBLA and PSN this spring.
