This is legitimately what half the people in this thread seem to believe, and that's actually more worrying than Jim being promoted.
Jim Ryan: "When we've dabbled with backwards compatibility, I can say it is one of those features that is much requested, but not actually used much."
Head of marketing for all of Europe I believe. Don't quote me though
He will be their Phil Spencer since they have a lot in common.
They haven't lost anyone in this transition.
Did you omit the "Why would anybody play this?" part on purpose?
And I would imagine that group will get smaller as the industry continues to move more digital. Think about all the PS+ games you wouldn't be able to play in that scenario.
Another thread turned into a console war. Jim Ryan makes a basic statement some don't agree with...Sony must be doomed, who cares he was great at his job.
Yes, because it was about PS1 and PS2 era Gran Turismos looking ancient compared to PS3 and PS4 era Gran Turismos. Do you disagree?
Both took terrible stances on things because they had to say what upper management told them to say. Phil had to openly embrace the original Xbox One vision because his bosses did. Jim had to go along with the narrative as well. Neither of them are dumb and both have contributed greatly to their product.
