I'm all for the game heads and hooray for ps3, ps2,x-box and all that. But Mr.Glen Schofield has crossed the line when he decided to put bricklayers down in January issue of Gameinformer 2009. How dare he? Who does this guy think he is? What because bricklayers don't go to work in a suit in tie and start at 9a.m. he's got the right to put down a trade that has been around centuries. Don't think so bud? My masonry brothers work hard for a living and it's honest work,and most of all it's art. But you see someone like you would'nt understand hard work,waking up at 5 or 6 a.m. putiing in a hard days work, whether it be cold or hot outside,and that ain't even getting into how the economy just took a dump on a lot of construction workers. There's a lot of guys out there, good hard woking men,bricklayers,carpenter's,drywallers concrete guys that are out of work,losing cars,houses,things that they have worked for, for many years being taking away because the way the economy has gone. It's just not right to boast about your the luckiest guy in the world to a magazine and think you can just put other people's hard work down, especially a trade that has been around so long. My wife made a good point when she read your article on game informer. She said" I wonder what he and his family live in"? And I simply said "I'm sure whatever he lives in, it ain't made of glass"........

EA really looks like its a great place to work. I was impressed by the fact that Peter Moore sat in a cubicle rather than a sealed office. I think that this is great example for a top down approach for promoting a positive organizational culture and flat structure. In combination with the facilities and art, I sense that EA Sports is home to a very fun and motivated work environment.

I'm excited to apply!

Peter, just an observation of the EA Tiger Woods forums:

Forum/Category Views Messages

Tiger Woods Playstation2 131,811 2,841

Tiger Woods Playstation3 213,409 5,821

Tiger Woods XBOX 360 305,689 7,200

Tiger Woods PC 427,139 10,758

Tiger Woods Wii 125,677 1,252

Tiger Woods Handhelds 8,086 82

It's hard for me to believe there is more interest in the Handhelds than the PC version.

Since you guys arent making a PC version of Madden this year, would it be too hard to release updated rosters for 08? even if you guys wanted to charge a few bucks for the download, im sure everyone that plays on PC would buy it, normally we get 4-5 updates a year on PC, if you guys charged 10 bucks an update you would make your money and not have to produce a new game......just a thought

Peter this is a great (short) article about the little things in sports games over at Operation Sports........

www.operationsports.com/feature.php

Also... this year can we please take out that dumb rocket/explosion sound when we throw a long pass on Madden? Or at least make it optional. Some of us like our games as real as real can get. That noise is annoying and too "arcady."
