Chomp Chomp Chomp! Monolithic publisher and developer EA just got bigger by swallowing whole Chillingo. Chillingo publishes innovative games and software for various platforms. Other hit iPhone, iPod touch and iPad titles include Cut the Rope, Angry Birds, Helsing’s Fire, Predators, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, Minigore, iDracula, and Modern Conflict.

Chillingo will apparently become part of EA Mobile. EA is committed to preserving Chillingo’s independence enabling them to manage and cultivate their great network of relationships to deliver the optimal gaming experience for consumers.

I guess time will tell on that. Congratulations might be in order for Chillingo. I’m sure the deal didn’t go down without them being interested in it and it probably has a lot of advantages like new injection of cash flow to continue making some really cool games.
