EA Sports Loses Mark Turmell

EA Sports Loses Mark Turmell

None

It seems like the biggest game designers in the industry are playing musical chairs these days. Today, Mark Turmell, the creator of NBA Jam, NFL Blitz, and Smash TV, has left EA Sports. The higher-ups at EA said, “We appreciate Mark’s contribution to Tiburon and EA Sports and wish him well in future endeavors.” At least they are parting ways on a good note.



Where will Turmell be headed? Well, there are reports that he will be heading to Zynga, of all places. Perhaps he wanted to get his hands on some FarmVille? Who knows, maybe Zynga’s next big game will be SportsVille, or something equally sports-related. Even better, what if we get a social networking version of Smash TV? That could be awesome!
