Peter needs some of the hard questions thrown at him, I'm tired of him saying how great the system is when I'm out almost $700 and I haven't even had a chance to play it.

I've enjoyed my 360 and am looking forward to the next wave of games. Ghost Recon and Splinter Cell will tie me over for quite some time, I'm sure.]]>Jan 23rd 2006 2:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/Jan 23rd 2006 2:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/
Peter, in a recent interview with EGM's Dan Hsu, you were hit with some pretty tough questions about the true state of gaming, and how the Xbox 360 isn't a huge stairstep improvement over its predecessor. Can you tell us in your own words how much you wanted to throttle Dan for not knowing his place as a shill for Microsoft?]]>Jan 23rd 2006 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/Jan 23rd 2006 2:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/
I just wish you guys, or someone would ask ONE question, that I've wanted to hear the answer to since I opened my 360.

Why is the voice quality so much poorer with the 360 as opposed to the first Xbox? And what is Microsoft doing to correct the problem?

(yes I know that's two questions, but they are very related)

And why hasn't Microsoft announced anything about it publicly yet? It's a huge issue that comes up everytime I go on Live. Someone always mentions how poor the voices sound compared to playing on the original Xbox.]]>Jan 23rd 2006 3:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/Jan 23rd 2006 4:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/Jan 23rd 2006 4:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/Jan 23rd 2006 5:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/Jan 23rd 2006 5:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/Jan 23rd 2006 10:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/Jan 23rd 2006 11:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/
This happened to me at a bar last week...I was REALLY hammered.]]>Jan 24th 2006 12:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/Jan 24th 2006 1:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/
This is exactly the kind of interview a Sony PR guy will never do. They will always claim their superiority, especially asked about competition. ("HD era doesn't start until we said so")

and i especially liked how he answered the HD DVD question. Indeed, a lot of people do NOT need next generation players immediately or right out of the box. Probably less than 10% will even care about it, since DVD is still as popular as ever. Until 3-5 years later when movies studios stop releasing movies on DVDs, the next gen format on a gaming platform won't matter.]]>Jan 24th 2006 3:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/http://www.engadget.com/2006/01/23/the-engadget-interview-peter-moore-corporate-vice-president-of/
