When Peter Moore made his departure for the pastures of EA, he left a gaping hole in both the structure and morale of the Xbox organization. While, I’ve heard nothing but great things from insiders regarding his successor, Don Mattrick, Moore’s front-and-center accessibility isn’t something that you can just order a replacement for. Then, just weeks after Moore dropped this bomb, the unthinkable happened.Peter Moore Eaten By a Bear!

For being such a huge influence on console gaming, and for changing the course of gaming in general on more than one occasion, Peter Moore’s departure from MS ranks in at number 8 on the Sarcastic Gamer Top 100 Gaming Moments of 2007.

      I miss that guy already, he was awesome at sega.

      Then he went to microsoft and made the xbox 360 feel like the “dreamcast 2″. (We all know it is and it’s winning this time.)

      And these new code things to post a message suck, they do not work 99% of the time(even if it is 100% correct) and are hard to read. How many times do I have to type E3a5bd to post something? Most the time I think it’s not worth it.
