It' s like the Halo 3 thread where i was saying it looked rubbish. Am i some sort of clown who doesn' t realise it' s a beta and actually doesn' t look bad at all? No. Did it get a shitload of hits? Yep.

Sony Boss Falls in PS3 Launch Aftermath


1up


' Father of PlayStation' steps down as company president...

...Here' s the question mark -- Ken Kutaragi, so-called " father of PlayStation" and hardcore Sony cheerleader, will move from his role as president into a new one as group CEO. Although Sony assures us that Kutaragi will still be instrumental in shaping the company' s future, is Kutaragi' s removal from day-to-day operations a punishment -- or is he simply moving up the corporate ladder?

Kutaragi removed from job in Sony PlayStation management shakeup


...and my personal favourite which acually coes from an unknown site (to me at least) called Playfuls.com...


PlayStation 3 Sells Like Cold Cakes, Sony Bosses Reshuffle




So days after it' s reported that Kuratagi was responsible for letting GTA 4 and Assassins Creed as well as other 3rd party games that could have been exclusive slip through his fingers, and after the laughable past year, people actually think they' re just promoting him? Oh please! They' re replacing him and sticking him in " a small dark office somewhere" , well out of the way where he can' t fuck up anymore.

It' s a critical time for Sony right now. A management re-shuffle isn' t exactly what they need and i' m sure Kutaragi would' ve rather been promoted once he led the games division to a 3rd consecutive victory, rather than just after they failed to deliver more than 300,000 units worldwide.

J Allard once said " What gets me out of bed and into the office every day is the thought of Ken Kutaragi' s resignation letter, framed, hanging next to my desk."

Right now he' s laughing his ass off.

Majik' s post was pure negative propaganda, but whataver, it doesn' t change the fact that we won' t hear as much from Mr. Frog as before, right?

Nah, I' m betting they' ve placed him in a bigger brighter office somewhere, and he' s making more money, but they gave him a fake secretary, a fake intercom, a fake telephone, and actors to make him think that he' s doing something important.
