Peter Moore To Leave MicrosoftJuly 18th, 2007humansockpuppet |
Microsoft announced on Tuesday that the voice of its next-generation console, Mr. Peter Moore, has officially resigned from his position and will be leaving to work for Electronic Arts after a transition period set to end in August.
The announcement comes as a shock to the industry, and many analysts are already discussing what this could mean for Microsoft’s business strategy. Many believe that this will negatively impact Microsoft’s image in the eyes of its core audience and fans. Moore was widely recognized as the voice of Microsoft’s next-generation system, and his charismatic and friendly attitude to public and consumer relations did much to project the corporation’s enormous multi-billion dollar hardware endeavor in a light that was approachable and sympathetic to gamers everywhere.
Moore is due to be replaced by Don Mattrick, a former EA Executive who was in charge of EA’s World Wide Studios.

REVIEW: GrimGrimoireJuly 16th, 2007Jason Glick |
If anyone cares, let me just say that I’m sorry this took so long. Lots of business with starting a new job, cons, friends and other stuff really took away from time that should’ve been spent looking at this. That being said, the clever observer would probably note that “GrimGrimoire” couldn’t have been all that great if it didn’t get me to devote all my spare time to it. They’d be correct, but the game’s not all bad. It just goes to show that no matter how engaging a story and characters you have, and no matter how you try to streamline and tweak the interface, real-time-strategy games just don’t work as well as they do on consoles as they do on PCs.
