PC Games

The PC is not just a business machine: it has been one of the top gaming platforms ever since it was invented. Whether your tastes run to first-person shooters, role-playing games, action, strategy or puzzling, you’ll find that the gaming you crave is available on the PC. And Electronic Arts leads the way when it comes to pushing the PC gaming envelope.

Indeed, some of Electronic Arts’ PC games franchises are beyond legendary. The Sims is the world’s best-selling PC series, and has garnered a hatful of awards along the way. It is the brainchild of PC game design genius Will Wright – one of the games industry’s most towering and influential personalities – who also created the much-loved PC games Spore and Sim City for Electronic Arts. Other blockbusting EA franchises for the PC include innovative action title Mirror’s Edge, state-of-the-art first-person shooter Crysis and the all-conquering sports games FIFA and Tiger Woods PGA Tour.

PC Games: Appealing To All

 One of the most impressive aspects of the PC as a gaming platform is its broad appeal: there are over 1 billion operational worldwide, used by people of all genders, ages and nationalities, a significant proportion of whom would not consider themselves gamers. Yet the allure of PC gaming is strong, and the PC is the leading repository of so-called casual games. EA caters for casual gamers via its Club Pogo service, and The Sims has demonstrated its unsurpassed mass-appeal credentials by selling 100 million units to the most diverse audience imaginable, 65% of which is female.

A PC Gaming Experience For Everyone

If you fancy yourself as a hardcore gamer, fear not: the PC has a vast amount to offer. Whether it’s first-person shooting using future technology you seek, role-playing action set in fantasy lands populated by dragons, brain-bending puzzle action or enacting your military leadership fantasies in a strategy game, it’s all there to be found on the PC. The PC was the breeding ground for first-person shooters, real-time strategy games and countless other genres, and was the first gaming platform to go online.

Electronic Arts has a long and distinguished record of creating blockbusting games for the PC and Mac, and  is fully committed to both platforms. As its blockbusting roster of future hit PC games demonstrates, featuring titles such as Star Wars: The Old Republic (the first massively multiplayer online game set in the Star Wars universe), Medal Of Honor, FIFA 11, Dead Space 2, Crysis 2, Dragon Age 2, Darkspore and Battlefield 1943, as well as a stream of new add-ons for The Sims 3.
