Electronic Arts is set to spend $680m buying Jamdat. The mobile games market is exploding currently, and looks set to rival the ringtone market soon. It’s no surprise to see the world’s largest and possibly most aggressive games company muscling into the market. The new EA mobile company is said to be releasing 50 games next year, many no doubt based on existing EA franchises like FIFA Football, SSX snowboarding and Need For Speed racing.
