Two consecutive internships looks no worse or better than two different internships.
Now, two different internships might give you completely different experiences, or depth as you return to the same project as before if you go back to the same place. But those things are both valuable in and of their own.
In short. Enjoy EA. Don't worry.
Working twice at the same position and team indicates that someone thought you where good enough to be worth inviting back. Personally I wouldn't see that as a bad thing.

Depends on what you were doing and what your supervisors/colleagues had to say about you. I worked at company Y every summer because my dad is the boss < I worked at EA every summer because they really wanted me back after the first.
I'm just about to intern for a second year Electronic Arts. If you saw a resume with two consecutive internships at the same place (same position and team, too), would you think better or worse of it as compared to someone who did two different, fairly big-name companies?
