Hard to imagine anything is gonna change, they've been hunting for a replacement for months, they probably picked someone who'll just carry on the board's vision. The Sports side of EA certainly is one of their strongsuits, I can remember a time when you weren't a respectable voice if you liked FIFA over PES, but PES seems firmly niche by comparison these days - its quite a turnaround in hardcore sentiment. I don't really care about FIFA / Madden though -- I just want them to do something decent with Star Wars, and try new things like Mirrors Edge again without shitting them up.
