Several sources are reporting that an Electronic Arts representative has confirmed that its Xbox 360 games take priority over other systems as multi-platform titles near completion.
The PS3 left dead and bloodied by EA?
The representative allegedly added that EA regularly shifts its workforce to concentrate on getting Xbox 360 versions shipped first due to the consoles larger user base when compared to the PS3 and Wii.
The practice of favoring one platform with a higher install base over another isn't uncommon. Game makers regularly support the more popular platforms in an effort to maximize a game's selling potential.
Several publishers, including EA, primarily focused on PS2 development over Xbox and GameCube ports last generation due to greater demand for the PS2.
GamePro has contacted EA for clarification on the matter.
