The Great EA Games Fire Sale
Published on November 03, 2025
Electronic Arts didn’t have the best 2008. Gambled on some new IP, which didn’t catch on as hoped. So it’s understandable that the company wants to put it all behind them with a big sale.

You’ll notice if you visit the website of both Amazon and GameStop/EB Games (showing that these are official cuts, and not retailer-specific) that most of EA’s 2008 lineup has been put on sale [[link]] in the past week or so. The following EA Games titles have been reduced:
– Dead Space was $60, now it’s $50
– Red Alert 3 was $40, now it’s $30
– Army of Two was $30, now it’s $20
– Mirror’s Edge was $50, now it’s $40
While the following EA Sports games are now cheaper:
[[link]]– Madden 09 was $60, now $50
– NBA Live 09 was $50, now $40
– FIFA 09 was $60, now $50
It’s common for older games to get cheaper as they get, well, older, but it’s strange seeing almost the entire recent lineup of [[link]] a big publisher get marked down at once.
You could , then, take this opportunity to kick EA while they’re down, but really, you should take the opportunity to pick up Mirrors Edge and/or Dead Space, which in hindsight were probably my two favourite games of 2008.

I really enjoy playing the slot games here. The variety is amazing, from classic reels to modern video slots with interactive bonus rounds. Every spin feels like an adventure, and the graphics and sound effects are top-notch, making the experience immersive and exciting. Sometimes I wish there were more ways to earn rewards through loyalty programs or frequent player bonuses. Adding seasonal events or special challenges could enhance the excitement even further. The promotions and bonuses offered are very generous. I especially love the daily free spins and deposit bonuses. They make playing even more enjoyable and increase my chances of winning big. The platform keeps me engaged for hours every day.
