EA Tiburon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
EA Tiburon is an Electronic Arts video game development studio located in Maitland, Florida just north of the Orlando, Florida downtown area. It was formerly known as Tiburon Entertainment, which was acquired by EA in 1998. The studio is most famous for developing the Madden NFL series of games. In addition to the usual titles developed by the studio which include Madden, NCAA Football and Nascar, Tiburon is currently in development on the new Superman Returns game based on the movie of the same name, due for a release coinciding with the DVD release in late 2006.
The six-floor building is subdivided by floor to place together employees working on the same project. Currently there is a floor devoted solely to Madden NFL and a floor devoted to Superman. These floors contain concept art, promotional artwork, and other items related to that floor's theme as well. Each floor has a small kitchen and arcade games, and the bottom floor contains a bigger arcade for employee use. Tiburon employs approximately five hundred people.
