Electronic Arts will be discussing its collaboration with movie director Steven Spielberg on the forthcoming Wii title Boom Blox, at next year's Game Developers Conference in San Francisco.

Vice president of creative development at EALA, Louis Castle, will dissect the project, one of three titles in development between Spielberg and the publisher.

The session will discuss how a small team in a short period of time managed to turn unrelated prototypes into an almost standard EA production.

EA and Spielberg announced their intentions to work together back in 2005, and as well as the Wii puzzle game are also known to be working on a contemporary action title.

The Game Developers Conference takes place February 18 — 22 in San Francisco.
