Funny, the game I most associate with him is BoomBlox on the Wii. It's a really great game, and I guess the wiimote is kind of mouse-like, particularly in that game.

He's been involved in several games though, even had an office at EA for a while. Most famously, of course, is the original Medal of Honor. Arguably the success of MoH as a franchise led directly to Call of Duty and thus to the current state of gaming today.
