Peter Moore interview

What games are you personally looking forward to in the next year?

Peter Moore: Boy, that’s a tough question. To start off with Banjo was fun, everybody loved the idea of Banjo coming back after what’s been like four or five years, since we’ve seen Banjo on any platform. Viva Piñata, I’ve got a lot of equity in that game, as regards doing the animated series with 4Kids, our teams have been great. Delighted to see the numbers in TV viewings for US and Canada and we will get it out in Europe as soon as can. I don’t know it’s tough not so say Gears of War. I mean I was getting worried Cliffy wasn’t going to give us any chainsaw action there because we had a couple of dry runs on that demo. I don’t know how well you were watching the game, he was struggling. Did you watch his power? That shows you how good the game is. You’ve got a guy who knows the game inside out and backwards. I mean there’s so much going on there. When you’re watching what was going on I think he missed a couple of emergence holes because the fire was coming in so heavy that he just couldn’t get there. That’s why this game is great. Here’s a guy that’s just battling away at this game and he may have been on insane mode or something. It’s a tough game. I’m very lucky to have a nice home theatre with nice surround sound and I know that game is just going to kick ass. Really is.
