EA: we want to put smiles on your your faces with Boogie
The library of games Electronic Arts has is quite varied. Video game Boogie is a new IP for the company and falls somewhat in the casual games category. It’s actually a rhythm-based game where players use the Wiimote to perform dance moves.
According to EA Montreal Studio GM and Boogie Lead Developer Alain Tascan, the title is in some way groundbreaking for them. He enthused:
We all enjoy some creative killing and at Electronic Arts, we know how to make those kinds of games but it’s time to go back to the basics, we want to put smiles on people faces when they play video games.
When Boogie arrives this fall, it will come with a bundled USB microphone that lets players come up with their own music videos. Based on what we heard so far and the game’s rather quirky characters, we could say that Boogie has all the potential to indeed bring smiles to our faces.
Lastly, Boogie is currently exclusive to the Wii, but EA hinted that the title might come to other consoles in the future to take advantage of Xbox 360’s and PlayStation 3’s online services for downloading tracks and stuff.
