EA Sports President Peter Moore recently talked to GameDaily (http://www.gamedaily.com/articles/news/peter-moore-i-know-i-pissed-off-a-lot-of-people/?biz=1) about his decision to not release Madden NFL 09 on PC. He acknowledges the move "pissed off a lot of people," but it was a business decision based on sports games in the PC market.
He stands by previous statements he made, when he was still with Microsoft (http://www.joystiq.com/2007/07/17/peter-moore-resigns-from-microsoft-replaced-by-don-mattrick/), that there'll be a PC gaming renaissance, but he says sports games aren't going to play a "huge role." He says that whether people agree with it or not, EA Sports is designing its games to be played ten feet away from a high-definition screen with groups of people playing online or in the same room. The full interview (http://www.gamedaily.com/articles/features/interview-a-sporting-man-eas-peter-moore/?biz=1) is actually quite deep, with Moore discussing a lot more about EA Sports' design philosophy, its targeted consumer and the issue of PC piracy.
