Having completed its acquisition of racing game studio Codemasters, Electronic Arts has said that it plans to treat the developer as an ?independent group for the foreseeable future.?
Originally in talks to be acquired by Take-Two Interactive, Codemasters ended up accepting a more lucrative offer of $1.2 billion from EA. The publisher already owns a number of racing franchises, and evidently wanted to retain its edge in the genre. However, those who are aware of EA?s history are skeptical of the move, especially since the company shut down EA Black Box and two Ghost Games studios.
