I think he did a great job at E3 2013...

Sony America boss Jack Tretton has stepped down, the company announced today. His last day will be on March 31.P

"This is a result of a mutual agreement between Mr. Tretton and SCEA not to renew their contractual relationship," Sony said in a press release. Tretton had been with Sony since 1995, and he'd been president of Sony's American division since 2006.P

"Working at SCEA for the past 19 years has been the most rewarding experience of my career," Tretton said in the statement. "Although I will deeply miss the talented team at SCEA and the passion demonstrated every day by our fans, I'm very excited about starting the next chapter of my career. I want to thank the employees, partners and customers for their tireless commitment to the PlayStation brand and, of course, to our fans who have pushed us to new heights of innovation and entertainment over the past two decades. I leave PlayStation in a position of considerable strength and the future will only get brighter for PlayStation Nation."P

Always thought he was a douchebag, kind of like Sony's version of Major Nelson.

Wonder where he will go.

Jack was the only presenter at E3 that didn't irritate the crap out of me.

I'll always remember him for that comment about how the 3DS is a "babysitting tool".

Best of luck in your future endeavors Mr. Tretton!
