It was only a matter of time. As great as EA's Online exclusivity deal with Sony was for PS2 owners, it was a bum deal for Xbox owners. This, of course, translated into legions of Pro-Xbox, Anti-EA gamers. We also knew that this wouldn't last for long -- it was only a matter of time before Madden was on Live.
Well, the time is now. Starting with this year's crop of sports titles, EA is finally on Xbox Live. This deal will also include future, non-sport titles as well.
It shouldn't take much to realize that this is a good thing for Xbox owners. See you online this summer.
