A few months ago, we reported on a new online PC sports developer/publisher called Play Hard. The Boston based company was founded by former Turbine CEO Jeff Anderson with plans to fill in some of the gaps in the PC sports game genre that were left when EA Sports decided to cut back on their PC products.

Today, Play Hard announced that they have hired a number of new team members, including two former EA Sports members. Brandon Justice will be the company's new director of game design. He previously worked as lead producer for EA's Madden 2006 and 2007 titles and also worked on a number of 2K Sports titles. Also Stephen Rozner, who worked on a number of EA Sports games as lead software engineer, has joined Play Hard as their director of game technology. Play Hard has yet to announced specifics on their PC game plans.
