This year E3 really changed things up in terms of format and location. While it was a smaller event, it was definitely more intimate and really allowed those in attendance to spend some time with the games...and the game makers. I found Microsoft Games Executive Peter Moore at the Viceroy for a community party and he was more than happy to share his thoughts with me. Peter has just announced that he's leaving Microsoft to head up EA Sports down in San Francisco. Take a look at this clip from what can now be considered one of his farewall parties.

Peter Moore will be missed. It's gonna be hard to replace his charm and personality. Twas funny when he told you he opened for Queens of the Stoneage for the second time. He was definitely having a very good time at the party.

I loved the lighting in this segment. Peter was definitely having a good time. I heard quite a bit about his post press-briefing performances in Rock Band...and everybody says he ruled!

Peter did a bang-up job as the executive for Microsoft games and he really was the face of Xbox 360 gaming. He will definitely be missed, but I really admire his reasons for leaving. He has his priorities straight and that's important. I'm sure he'll have a great impact at EA.

I loved some of his jokes. At a few points there he sounded like he may have had a bit too much to drink. Awesome!
