Peter Moore says Home is “very cool,” but he’s “disappointed” about the delay
Peter Moore may not work for Microsoft anymore, but that doesn’t mean he can’t talk smack complain about Sony’s Playstation Home from his position as the President of EA Sports.
Here’s what Moore had to say about Home:
“I just wish it would ship. I [previously] questioned it a little bit, whether I’d want to wander around there. Phil Harrison showed me a demo - it’s very cool, but let’s go already. And so I’m disappointed that it’s been pushed back a little bit again.
“But I really hope it gets going and becomes that portal to the PlayStation Network and we can utilise it. But boy, I just wish we’d get going.”
While Moore may or may not still have a bias against Sony, I don’t think this quote suggests any bias. He does compliment Home, and you can’t blame him for being anxious - when something’s been delayed as much as Home, of course people just want it to finally be ready and are disappointed when it’s not.
He’s just expressing the same feeling plenty of gamers have, but his prominent position makes his opinion actually matter.

Doesn’t he know that it got delayed because beta testers said that it was boring? I’d rather they delay it and make it worthwhile than release it and have it suck.
Also, it’s “compliment.” “Complement” is a different word.
Oops, thanks for the correction.
