EA joins retro repackaging

Although companies like Atari and Activision have long been bundling old games together for quick cash, EA has remained relatively quiet in that area until now. The Web is abuzz over this GameStop listing, which promotes a PSP title called EA Replay. Scheduled for October 3rd, it seems to collect a number of classic games from the early to mid-nineties, such as Budokan, Road Rash, Syndicate, Wing Commander, and Ultima VII: The Black Gate. Don't get your hopes up for the PC versions though; since this compilation would (if it's real) be limited to PSP controls, chances are that EA would rely on the SNES/Genesis ports. The Scan will try to confirm more details as they come in.
