EA’s Need For Speed Shift, which was one of the first racing MMOs, charged users some $20 to remove the level cap of 10, has now gone free, after reaching 1 million players, according to EA. The game will also receive co-op pursuit mode and expanded customization options during the new update. However, you’ll still be able to purchase cars with real money, as well as items, power-ups and other content.

The iPad launches tomorrow, but you probably already knew that. If you’re getting one, you may be looking around for games you’ll be able to play right when you get your hands on it. Well, we recently showed you Geometry Wars for the iPad, but what about EA titles? Well, the company has just announced that versions of Need for Speed Shift, Mirror’s Edge, Scrabble, Tetris and Command & Conquer Red Alert are now available for the platform.

I personally am most excited about Command & Conquer because and RTS on the iPad would be beyond badass.
