Danger Close Games (formerly known as EA Los Angeles) is a video game developer founded originally in 1995 as DreamWorks Interactive LLC, a subsidiary of DreamWorks SKG. The company was acquired by Electronic Arts in 2000 from the film studio (and Microsoft, which had part ownership of the company) and in 2003 merged with the Westwood Studios (the original creators of the Command & Conquer series) and EA Pacific (originally Westwood Pacific) to create the new EA Los Angeles development studios. Soon after, many of the staff who worked at Westwood Studios came back together to form Petroglyph Games.

Famous quotes containing the words danger, close and/or games:
“I still feel just as I told you, that I shall come safely out of this war. I felt so the other day when danger was near. I certainly enjoyed the excitement of fighting our way out of Giles to the Narrows as much as any excitement I ever experienced. I had a good deal of anxiety the first hour or two on account of my command, but not a particle on my own account. After that, and after I saw that we were getting on well, it was really jolly. We all joked and laughed and cheered constantly.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“Westward the course of empire takes its way;
The four first acts already past,
A fifth shall close the drama with the day;
Time’s noblest offspring is the last.”
—George Berkeley (1685–1753)
“In the past, it seemed to make sense for a sportswriter on sabbatical from the playpen to attend the quadrennial hawgkilling when Presidential candidates are chosen, to observe and report upon politicians at play. After all, national conventions are games of a sort, and sports offers few spectacles richer in low comedy.”
—Walter Wellesley (Red)
