Wow I thought he was moving to EA Canada. That a big loss for EA. He really took a good franchise (Knockout Kings) and turned it into something excellent (Fight Night). Great pickup by MS.

I don't know if recruiting developers out of EA is the right direction to take if you want quality products... but Microsoft doesn't usually make stupid business mistakes so we'll see.

 

From what I know of Tsunoda, he's actually one of the few that people want from EA.

 Yeah when EA announced they were closing EA Chicago a lot of gamers, myself included, wondered where Tsunoda was going. I mean Fight Night, unlike Madden, is an excellent franchise despite the lack of competition from other developers.
