Peter Moore Talks Console Wars

After a couple months of silence from the just appointed President of EA Sports, Peter Moore is making a grand debut this week at the Electronic Arts' Studio Showcase. The press event was held to show off EA's upcoming GameShow for the PC, which also has the possibility of seeing PS3 and Xbox 360 release, depending on how the PC version fares. Following the event, GameSpot sat down to interview Peter Moore.

Moore stated, “my new favorite console,” in reference to the PS3, while holding a SixAxis controller. “And now here’s my other favorite console,” in reference to Wii, while holding a Wii remote and nunchuk.

The man radiates professionalism and Godliness amongst other company reps.

[jay3]

He is my favorite Businessman.

Him and that other guy from Microsoft who act's like a 10 year old kid with 'Roids and a hell of a lot of Frosties in him everytime he does a conference...

[Lucidmantra]

You mean Balmer?

[XxZxX]

huh?? new favourite console is PS3. I think he is saying to get him neutral. Lot of pressure on him since he's joinning and XBOX 360 Madden ran better.

[XxZxX]

of course, he used to lead Sega, and Microsoft consoles division. Failure or not, I dont think anyone here can match his position. If he is an idiot, he wouldn't make it there. That guy is smart and he used his limp to get more PR too.

[SIX]

It's all business.

[damnwrx]

....

[mighty_douche]

he can avoid being biased towards the 360, peter moore could do good things for EA! for ALL of us!

[Darkiewonder]

Is the man!

*Bows*

haha. He's cool before and after his leave.

[Leg-End]

however, he could make ea good

[MrLukeyB]

bout time somone done somthin gd with e.a

[mighty_douche]

this thread even has CONSOLE WAR in the headline, and yet i have seen no fanboy-ism cack!

VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!!

[ShiftyLookingCow]

ps3 sucks, so does the 360 and the wii. Phantom rules!

[Bordel_1900]

Man, I'm starting to like Mr. Moore.

Maybe he can kick higher standards into E.A. Hell, even the PS3 could benefit from Moore's E.A. move.

[the worst]

2k rules

[nekon]

I'm surprised he wasn't asked or commented on the PS3 being lead console for the next Madden..

[onyxbox]

I've always had respect for Peter Moore, he is one of the good guys and these latest comments just make me smile like a Cheshire cat.

[Shaka2K6]

What do you know idiot, you destroyed two gaming divisions already killed Sega and left microsoft gaming division none profitable until 2020.
hahaha just remenber some of his quotes.

''its obvious people are chossing h-dvd ''

'' question- so what r u gonna do about xbox live and all the annoying 12 year old kids playing and screaming racist jokes and acting really immature?
Peter Moore - LMAO but whats out entire xbois fanbase ''

LMAO poor guy.

[gEnKiE]

wow, i think hes a changed man. i was wondering how the whole going to ea thing was going to work out for the ps3 and wii, but it actually seems like he made a great choice. i dont really care for ea but he seems like a good guy for the job.

[gano]

People don't change sides that quick, he's still being an ass somewhat
i jus hope he does his job. Still no EA for me. He was being sarcastic,
and slightly smart. This is his new job remember, Ea did say that xbox is first, sorry not to cause flaming but i don't want half-ass.

[aiphanes]

At least NBA live 08 will be 60 fps on the PS3...that is good to know. Madden 09 will be 60 fps on both playforms.

Moore is not a wii or PS3 hater...that is good to know. I have not problems with him.

[BaMYouRDeaD]

When he was at MS, he only supported the 360 because WORKED FOR THEM. Now that hes at EA, he has to support all 3 consoles.

If tomorrow Major Nelson goes and becomes a Sony exec, then he will support the PS3. It's all business. Don't accuse anyone of being a hypocrite.

[IRONMAN_X57]

i used to not realize his professionalism, he is a high up rank for reps, he admits 360's weaknesses and realises the truth, good for him, really

[jackdoe]

Moore is a smart man. When he was 360 "exclusive" he appealed to the 360 fanbase by getting all those tatoos and calling out the other consoles. But now that he's "multiplatform" he respects all the consoles like all level headed people should. Hopefully he can bring the quality of the early 2K titles to the Madden franchise, maybe that shot in the arm to really shake things up.
