He was the lead architect of the Vita? Look how the Vita is doing, OMG PS4 is gonna fail confirmed!

On a serious note, that was not expected, what a surprise!

He designed the Vita. He's not responsible for making the games for it. Sony needs to do a better job on getting the Vita some games because it's a great piece of hardware.

I realize that, I was just taking two known facts and creating my own false future predictions, no need response to that "OMG PS4 is gonna fail confirmed", that was just me fooling around. But I agree that it's a great piece of hardware, but Sony just didn't provide well enough support for the Vita to start it off well, it just needs games to make anyone want to take that rather large financial investment. The expensive SD memory cards don't help either, one probably only buys them when they're at a discounted price, which is almost never.

This guy is a champ. I frikin love the Vita hardware. It's such an amazing machine in what it can do. Unfortunately it has the biggest of all problems and that is software. I hope Sony support and expand it like they are doing with PS3/PS4.

I hate it when they're on a short PR leash. I prefer interviews with indies. They tell it like it is.

Okay i've known this guy since very early Playstation Magazine Demo disks where he talked about Spyro and he was with Ted Price and Yoshida (yoshida was a developer as well but for Studio Japan , ALA Legend of Dragoon) Cerny's pretty cool and all he had a long history, but If I never knew him from back then I would wonder

"why is this guy bragging about his achievements so suddenly ? "

is he trying to gain popularity with the release of PS4? , because he should have done so long ago, he seem to be at the moment like

"oh you remember that game? yeah I WORKED ON IT TOO!" "Oh so you remember that game, guess what I WORKED ON IT"

What's wrong with him saying he worked on a specific game? He deserves the credit. Plus you make it sound as if he is arrogant when he says it. He seems very humble and not all up in your face about it.

I'm saying why haven't he talked publicly like this the past couple of years?

Because he was soooo busy wif da PEE ES PHOUAAR! 

Or... something... But he sure did a good job on hardware, Vita and PS4 are both really great. I mean, come on. All the money in the world (=MSFT) wasn't able to create a better console and Cernys approach is even cheaper! 

Oh and that instant changing of apps and games everyone keeps talking about? Vita has it. Since more than a year.
