Among advice dished out to Playfish’s competitors and predictions of a “rapid maturing” in the casual scene over the next year or two, Segerstrale revealed that his company is currently working on a social game based on a “well-known EA brand”, and that it will be out later this year.

Interesting. It’s not Lord of Ultima, somebody else is doing that. What it may be is Command & Conquer, especially when you back and re-read EA boss John Riccitiello’s comments to Kotaku last year.
