Jaffe is a paid or unpaid shill for GamePass.
Likely unpaid. He has a big bug up his but when it comes to Sony as he feels hard done upon with the success of God of War without him. Had he not been pushed out at Sony he would have made millions of dollars most likely from God of War and the upcoming TV show, but he was notoriously difficult to work with.
He thought GamePass was Microsoft way of defeating Sony, but as it has predictably imploded, he's now trying to defend his shilling by saying it was the executives at Microsoft not the model itself that was faulty.
Everyone who can do simple math could see that GamePass was revenue destructive and dangerous for the industry. It's going to take a long time for GamePass subscribers to get back into the habit of buying games again, but when they do, the industry will be much healthier for it.
And unfortunately for Jaffe, Sony is probably going to see it's most successful years with no competition from Microsoft.
