Team ICO makes one game a decade, none of which have been successful. ICO and SOTC were masterpieces but barely sold anything. Gravity Rush is really not that good of a game anyways.

The only series i miss is Ape Escape, they botched the series with a million japan only spin offs.

Im not really talking sales or anything lol. I enjoyed the Siren games, Gravity Rush, LocoRoco, Tokyo Jungle etc etc.

Having team Ico games for me would be amazing. Dont care how long they take lol, Studios like Naughty Dog and Sucker Punch are making 2 games a decade atm lol

Fact - Sales targets were missed last quarter. The only person responsible for that is Jim Ryan.

One Q1 missed the target = doom and gloom. Whole year counts, not one quarter.

Hardware Sales for Quarter 1 FY 23/24 are up 900k year over year, Quarter 2 is usually bigger than Quarter 1 so we should see a decent sized increase for Q2.

But I didn't talk about money, so it is absolutely a strawman.

You've mentioned "pc ports selling like shit" which implies money. So, yes, you did. PC ports are just extra money and PC doesn't devalue brand. GAAS games will launch day and date on PC which is fine. Other games releasing few years later is also fine.

Of course it affected the entire industry. It still doesn't address what I said. Go read again.

1st party games are in full production, dunno what the hell you are blabbing about. Bluepoint and Housemarque released at the beginning of PS5 era. What, you already want their next games next year to release? LOL. Mind you that next year will see stuff from Sucker Punch and Bend Studio. These 2 are already working on other games before PS5 launch.
Satoru said:
Please show data on that.

Average in EU is 64/65 for retirement. I mean, easy to google. Jim wants to retire and i don't see a problem in that.

Good to know you have a direct line with him.

Not sure what to think. This is my least favorite management PS ever had but there's a pretty good chance someone much worse comes in. At least Ryan has been with PS for decades.

Also, the fact that they don't have someone to replace him right away makes me think this isn't "health issues". If he was ill, it would have been known and a replacement ready to go when he retired.

inb4 it's Hulst. Even worse than Ryan.

PlayStation will make more live service games, but won’t abandon roots, studio chief says

Hermen Hulst talks PC, mobile, combatting crunch and a whole lot more.

Notice how you had to resort to calling names instead of answering the question. Also… your girl is one, and that’s if you even have one. 😂

JIM RYAN - Issuu

Picture this. It’s 2nd of December 2022, and Jim Ryan (68-78) is back in the corridors of RGS after –what seems like a trivial –45 years since he graduated from school on Eskdale Terrace. The faces are different; indeed welcoming our visiting Old Novo back to school is our current Headmaster...
