Peter Moore Launches EACrazyLegs Blog
Posted by Brian Crecente at 12:16 PM on February 12, 2008
Ah Peter Moore, how we've missed you. No one has really stepped into the "public face" void filled by Moore's sudden departure over at Microsoft, but fortunately, Moore himself is still going to be very much a public face in gaming.
Today the EA Sports president launched his very own blog over on EA Sports. Moore says he hopes to update it weekly with thoughts on sports, sports gaming and the gaming industry. He also told me in a recent interview that he might post some picture of fancy new digs (complete with sports bar I'm told) on the site down the line.
If his first blog post, which touches on everything from Facebreaker, the Super Bowl and why he thinks Larry Hryb is the Perez Hilton of blogging, is any indication, Inside the Game with Peter Moore is going to be a must read for sports gamers. Oh, and the best part? His posting name is EACrazyLegs. Wow!

When he starts using real blogging software I might follow it ... but screw the "forums" approach. I know blogs ... and that ain't no blog.

When Master Chief reveals his 'Face', it will infact be a tattoo of Peter Moore's face on top of his real face.
However, when Moore reveals his true face, empires shall fall. This is his industry. To him, we all look like little money-ants down here...

I hope he makes the PS3 EA Sports game right this year so I can enjoy Madden in HD on the PS3

Maybe Peter Moore can explain to us why EA Sports doesn't give a crap about the PC platform anymore.

oh god. why couldn't he use a real blog rather than forum. EA's site, just like their game server are unreliable. But hey, last time I went was during the Burnout's development days.

This is like the 4th or 5th time I've heard Peter Moore drag out his "Major Nelson is the Paris Hilton of video games" joke. It was honestly funny the first time I heard it, because I figured it was off-the-cuff. But I guess he took some time writing that one because he's trying to get alot of mileage out of it.

I know who EAcrazylegs is. He is the EA Canada Community Leader. If you need an e-mail to validate, that can be arranged. Just wanted to keep you guys on your toes. ;)

Man, I love google:

On note: it seems that he enjoys his new job, as he talks about sports a lot (most of which i don't particularly understand), and the new things he thinks he can bring to the table.
The mention of the dreamcast was enough to give him props for trying.

His first post tomorrow will be a fake tatoo of the next Madden cover athlete.

FYI: "EAcrazylegs" isn't his screen name....that's the screen name of the EA rep who posted it for him.
