CHILDREN COLLIDE\u2019S NEW REMIX SINGLE MADE EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE WITH FIFA 10 ON PLAYSTATION<\/strong>\u00ae<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sydney, Australia <\/strong>\u2014 October 7th<\/sup> 2009<\/strong> \u2013 Children Collide and Electronic Arts Pty Ltd, an Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) company announce a unique collaboration that will see the remix of the band\u2019s brand new single \u2018Skeleton Dance\u2019, mixed by uber-cool UK band Ladytron, launch exclusively via the highly anticipated release of EA SPORTS\u2122 FIFA 10<\/em> on all PlayStation\u00ae platforms.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The \u2018Skeleton Dance\u2019 remix track will be made available with EA SPORTS\u2122 FIFA 10<\/em> on all PlayStation\u00ae platforms through Australia\u2019s leading retailers from October 1st<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

The exclusive remix single will be available to consumers to download when they purchase EA SPORTS\u2122 FIFA 10<\/em> for any of the PlayStation\u00ae platforms \u2013 PSP\u00ae (PlayStation\u00aePortable), PlayStation\u00ae2 and PlayStation\u00ae3 , the ultimate home entertainment system where the game is just the start.<\/p>\n

Over the past twelve months Children Collide have garnered a reputation as one of Australia\u2019s hottest bands.\u00a0 Now, the band\u2019s \u2018Skeleton Dance\u2019 remix taps the trend for exposure of music artists via video games.<\/p>\n

Supplementing the remix, the original mix of \u2018Skeleton Dance\u2019 – taken from the band\u2019s debut album \u2018The Long Now\u2019 – features on the official EA SPORTS\u2122 FIFA 10<\/em> in-game soundtrack.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlaying video games was one of the ways that Heath, Ryan and I found out about music growing up, and it\u2019s something we\u2019ve always been interested in getting involved with.,\u201d said Johnny Mackay, Children Collide\u2019s vocalist and guitarist.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy Irish cousins punishing me at FIFA while they called me \u2018Skippy\u2019 didn\u2019t deter me from loving this game, and the chance to get remixed by Ladytron \u2013 who we\u2019re all fans of \u2013 has been the icing on the cake of the whole experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

The EA SPORTS\u2122 FIFA 10<\/em> soundtrack showcases great music from every corner of the globe, bringing together tracks from 39 different artists representing more than 25 football nations such as England, Germany, Mexico, Brazil and Spain and many more.\u00a0 A broad and diverse range of artists are featured, including The Enemy, R\u00f6yksopp, Major Lazer and Wyclef Jean.<\/p>\n

The complete EA SPORTS\u2122 FIFA 10<\/em> track listing can be enjoyed via EA\u2019s proprietary EA Trax in-game music player, which lets users customize playlists and select music to soundtrack their progress while they play the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe exposure now offered by videogames is unprecedented,\u201d said Steve Schnur, Worldwide Head of Music and Marketing at EA.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cEach copy of EA SPORTS\u2122 FIFA 10<\/em> will be played for hours and hours with players hearing the featured music tracks repeated at high frequency.\u00a0 Multiply the millions of copies of the game sold worldwide this year by that reach, and it translates into billions of song impressions during the game\u2019s lifetime.\u00a0 This provides even more exposure than a number one record in multiple territories.\u201d<\/p>\n

EA SPORTS\u2122 FIFA 10<\/em> is one of the world\u2019s most eagerly anticipated gaming releases this year, following on the heels of the top-selling EA SPORTS\u2122 FIFA 09<\/em>* winning 25 international gaming awards, clocking up more than 275 million online games played**.<\/p>\n
