Gardner was at EA for nearly 25 years and was one of its first employees in 1983. Early on he was in sales and marketing and in '92 became Managing Director of Europe, where he had a strong role in European acquisitions for EA and integrating those companies into the beast. Before leaving EA last August he held the title of COO of Worldwide Studios and helped establish EA in Asia. Best of luck to Gardner, who's got a lot of work ahead of him.

EA sure does have a weird way of shuffling it's staff around the industry, and vice versa.

you can say that again. i am so confused by all this shuffling. it makes no sense to me! it's certainly a "once your in, your set for life" type of job. nothing short of death or jail time can get you out of it.

Unlike lead balloons I don't think golden parachutes work.
