RIP, godfather of video games.

Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

A legend. That's the only way to describe his impact.

I hope all the gaming fans, especially the younger ones can take some time to understand what this man meant to this industry (Nintendo, Sony, MS, Sega fans put down your banners for a moment). Today whether it's in the Mushroom kingdom or the airships of Final Fantasy or the streets of GTA ... flags fly at half mast.

He is really in a lot of way the father of the modern gaming business.
