New screenshots of EA Playground

Remember the games you used to play back in school? Dodgeball, Tetherball, even that game where you raced paper airplanes across the classroom? While some of us may be old enough to look like complete dummies in trying to get back to that simpler, more fun-oriented time in our lives, Electronic Arts certainly doesn’t think it has to be that way for long. Wee see that and more of this screenshot update of the upcoming DS and Wii title, EA Playground.

From the more mean-spirited games like Spitball and Dodgeball, to the more sedate, competitive ones like Paper Racers and Bug Hunt, EA Playground offers quite a wide variety of activities to choose from in both console and portable versions of the game. Some activities are also unique to each version, as stated in a previous news update – but they’re definitely both equally engaging in terms of gameplay and wholesome fun.

With cute, superdeformed graphics, a selection of games kids from seven to 77 will have fond (and not so fond) memories of, unique and easy-to-master controls on both consoles, EA Playground looks to be a winner. Check back here for more updates about EA’s latest sports title for the Nintendo Wii and DS.
