odd comment from a mod. I've seen 2 week bans given to people here for saying the same thing.

It's all about the context- it's obvious that my one was a joke because you can't "sell" a person.

I think this shows the direction that gaming is taking. Didn't MS recently promote the guy that worked on their cloud network? Now Sony promote the guy that worked on PSN. The future of gaming will be heavily online and cloud based. BTW Jack was a good guy. Only oversensitive people could hate him for having a dig at the competition. He always showed respect and was humbled by Sony consumers.

Shawn Layden, currently Executive Vice President and COO of Sony Network Entertainment International, will become President and CEO of SCEA, effective April 1, 2014.

So, this E3 pressure is on this guy. Good luck to him.

Makes sense. Sony is a sinking ship with billion dollar quarterly losses and is expected to post another billion dollar quarterly loss. I wouldn't stay either.

Jup, that's accurate....

Damn. He was a great person and one of the reasons why E3 shows were watchable. The used games announcement will forever be remembered with great joy. He was a symbol of E3. Truly bad news.

E3 will never be the same.

We even had a VGC member with a Jack Tretton avatar. I wonder what happened to that member by the way... he was in a depression, had an abusive step dad and was dreaming about being a potato.

Horrorfest is the guy you're thinking of.
