I’ve arrived at the Orpheum Theater in LA for the EA Press Conference scheduled to begin at 2pt/5et. Peter Moore is expected to appear at some point and talk about the growth and direction of online play while making big announcements for Madden and other EA Sports titles. Continue on for the live blog.

*Please note this is connection permitting. If the wireless connection goes out I’ll still be on Twitter.* Feel free to continue leaving comments.

145: Sitting in the theater. Wireless connection is sketchy. Hundreds of media connecting into it.

150: Did an interview a few minutes ago while in line that’ll go up on Inside EA Blog at some point. Will be catching up after for reaction as well.

WORST LIVE BLOG EVER! Damn what a perfect storm of connection issues. It went out completely in the theater. Cell phone reception was knocked out. Data on my phone didn’t return immediately after. Walked to Staples. Got to hotel where the internet was down. Ahh! Okay I’m back up now, stories on the way.

The growth of online play really has me wondering about the possibility of playing your opponents for money. I know this already exists with gamersaloon and other startups, but I personally think their model is all wrong.

I think we are going to see a leader rise to the for-front of online video game gambling within the next 5 years… just like we've seen someone absolutely rampage another niche video game industry in the past.

Exciting times ahead. The NCAA and Madden experts might be able to actually make a living doing what they love. Then throw Halo into the mix and all the other me vs. you games out there and you've got a billion dollar market.

i agree with you man its just gotta be reinovated, gotta figure out a way how to make it worthwhile peoples money to do it. Its gonna be about 5 years though when this video game generation gets older and has the money

Mr. Professional

If you are referring to all the videogame news going around all of a sudden, you can find out more about E3 expo on sites like IGN.com and gamespot.com. If you want the sports games in general, this is the place to be. Just refresh every day or so
