you gotta to be kidding me?
On Peter Moore's mind, Xbox 360 is his priority. So he probably will force EA to make games better on xbox than ps3.

[TECHNOshamanism]

how does a story like this make for news? , its not like he's going to work for sony now

[rev20]

Cant keep hold of petty grudges in business they want the most money possible EA always have.

[Salvadore]

Doesn't matter if 360 is his first priority because if there are 2 or more ways in increasing your profit, you will look at all of those areas (in this case console). I think that Peter will in his opinion priorities the 360, but business wise, he will have to be open to his competitiors.

[mighty_douche]

do you really think peter moore cares about xbox or ps3? he is a business man, and one that is out to do the best for its business! after leaving microsoft (which he obviously wasnt happy at) hes not gonna hold any loyalty to either console, his priority will be simple to make money same as when he was xbox's big cheese!

im just showing what may happen.

btw- im a hardcore Sony fan.

[TriggerHappy]

Of course they do, they dont really have a choice in this matter.

[ReconHope]

hmm lets see what becomes of this.

[Bill Gates]

I'm telling you people, there's something fishy about Peter and that other dude from EA trading positions. Nintendo & Sony watch your backs.

LOL @ M$'s 3FixMe.....HAHAHHAHHAHA

[Mr VideoGames]

i can't wait for Peter to slap him across the Face

[DirtyRat]

I doubt there was any "grudges" with Tretton and Moore, they were friends previously, before Moore worked for MS, business is business.

[Vojkan]

Yup they are not kids, they are professionals. Why would they hate each other? Just because one works for Sony and other for MS? LOL

[Marriot VP]

hey do you remember all that smack talk back and forth from Sony and MS. Now you can't say there won't be at least a little bit of grudge holding in the Xbox's favor. Nothing big, just perhaps developing multiplatform games on the 360 first and porting them to the PS3. Which will make the 360 versions better.

Ohhh wait, that's pretty much true already.

[rev20]

True, but the same is happening to the 360 aswell now, so both are equal :)

[mighty_douche]

he just wants to rub his shiny ps3 ass in peters face... sony always believed they had the better package now with the head of XBOX quiting that just reinforces it!

[BoneMagnus]

Its like Bill Clinton and Bush Sr. - they are all over the place together doing charities and having a ball together.

When you underestimate and no longer respect your opponent, you lose.
So even if they are are "friends", they must respect each other, and in reference to the mistakes both companies have made - I think they understand - far more than we do - the challenges they face.

Honestly, how can you not give props to Sony for coming out of no where and dominating the market with the PS2? And how can you not give props to MS for establishing themselves as a force with Sony dominating the market. And how can you not give props to Nintendo for creating the past-time we all love and responding this gen with something that has been a runaway commercial success as well as their success in the handheld arena?

Lol a change of face won't harm M$.

It helped Sony.

EA has been trading players lol. Look out Sony, theres a very close relationship between EA and the 360 now.

You can bet your ass it will have an impact. Of course they will release games for PS3, it's a business. But you have to beleive that there will be certain perks that M$ will get for having such a close relationship.

[nobizlikesnowbiz]

<EDIT> Eh stupid dbl post

[tomfoolery]

and now with Peter running the show......gives M.S. yet another
advantage against Sony.What a leaf to have in their cap(M.S.),and you
know he's going to always make sure benefits and perks are given to
his baby the 360.Sony has always been a thorn in Petes paw,so don't
think he's automatically become unbiased towards Sony.

[kevin1122]

ive got to ask, are you a moron or what. It's business, peter moore doesnt hold grudges against sony, Only moronic fanboys like yourself think he cares for microsoft or is loyal to them.

[nirwanda]

Jack Tretton looks like Ricky Gervais/David Brent listening to his comments and watching him on the sony conference I really don't like him he lacks the charisma of peter moore and phil harrison

[Ortiz83]

man he wont do more for te 360. Some people are just stupid. This is his new job. His part is to make sure the ea games rock and sell so ea can make money. Guess what, he will make the games for ps3, 360, wii, ps2, etc. and try to make the games on each platform look the best and play the best and what not. Cause thats what sells game, and thats why ea hired him for. Cause he helped with 2k7, and ea knows that game was all over them. And with him now in ea, ea knows he will make the madden franchise and other sport games better. Thus selling more games. Meaning more money for ea. Damn, aint no special treatment for one console. This is business, ea wants money, and they think peter moore will bring them more money.
