SIMPSONS: TAPPED OUT MAKES BIG BUCKS FOR EA

According to the most recent financials for EA, The Simpsons: Tapped Out has been a rousing success for the already monster game publisher raking in about $23 million. This is despite the fact that the game’s servers had a bunch of issues and the game itself wasn’t really all that good. That said, the developer has done a great job of releasing updates and supporting its IP with holiday themes like Christmas and Halloween. 

Speaking of the holidays,  Simpsons: Tapped Out has a new Valentine’s Day update that includes a bunch of neat features like:

-New Buildings: Pick up some love handles a la mode at Phineas Q. Butterfat’s, capitalize on insecure relationships at Howard’s Flowers, and even lose some golf balls at Sir Putt-A-Lots.
-New Characters: Send Shauna around searching for young love, get Homer and Marge to snuggle in the Golf Castle, and send Valentines with Lisa.
-New Decorations: Sweeten up your Springfield with rose bushes, cherub topiaries, and the “I Choo-Choo-Choose You Train.”
-New Quests: Join Bart on his quest for love. Will Bart and Shauna enjoy a blossoming romance, or will Bart be left sulking in his room?
-New Event: Visit your friends’ towns, send Valentine’s Day cards, and generate limited-time Heart currency.
