Dear Reader:
EA wants to work with ESA to fix E3, Peter Moore wants to invite you guys
This all stems from a blog post by Peter Moore. Read on, you guys are going to like what you hear.
“There was a palpable sense of frustration at the structure and logistics from all participants, from publishers like ourselves to the working press and financial analysts. Soulless and lacking an epicenter, the fragmented layout gave no indication whatsoever that we are the fastest growing entertainment medium in the world. While I am not sure I want to revert back to the old days of excess and one-upmanship, I do know that this format isn’t working. We’re confident that we can work with the ESA to make this right. There are important meetings ahead that we think will be substantive and be productive in finding the right path forward. Let’s invite the community. With the right planning, involving our biggest fans in E3 would bring back some of the raw passion the event has lost. Whether it’s E3, or whether it’s in our forums, my belief is bringing in the fans helps us to create better games and bring new ideas to the market.”
Peter isn’t the first to call for E3 to open to the public, but he definitely seems very passionate about it. Bravo Mr. Moore, bravo.
