Electronic Arts, the world's largest video game maker, said Tuesday it will pay $14.9 million to former and current computer programmers to settle a 2005 California class action seeking overtime compensation. Almost 200 entry-level programmers will be eligible for overtime pay under the settlement. A similar lawsuit filed in 2004 on graphic artists' behalf was settled last fall when EA made a $15.6 million payment.

Video game publisher Electronic Arts Inc. said Tuesday it will pay $14.9 million to former and current computer programmers to settle a California class action lawsuit seeking overtime compensation.
The settlement of the suit, which was filed in February 2005, resolves the last of two legal challenges EA faced regarding the alleged avoidance of overtime pay. A similar lawsuit filed in 2004 on behalf of graphic artists was settled last fall when EA made a $15.6 million payment.
