Holy shyt......................

"Get Jimbo on the phone right now! Keighley said don't lay off those 900 people we gotta reverse this shyt!"

Some people man. Keighley doesn't hold any real weight. Nobody gives a shyt what he says. Those executives answer to the shareholders not a game media presenter. Geoff Keighley needs Sony more than Sony needs him.

Never know who them nikkas was and didn't care
Wish it would go back to that

Holy shyt......................

Low-key I agree tho

 

[itsyoung!!]

Wow that’s a lot of people, ain’t no way Riot have had multiple rounds of layoffs or anything

You retarded or what ? What the fukk that got to do with the subject me and the other poster are discussing?

Gaming crash imminent

When the new Spiderman game, that didn't change that much from the first game, cost $250 million to make...I knew it.

Plus, everything a safe remake or sequel.

shyt, I read microtransactions going down a bit with 2k.

Yea, it might be a wrap.

Damn. How did I miss this thread? It seems like that GAAS initiative really fukked things up for Sony.

Layoffs are unfortunately part of the deal. This is the cold blooded shyt though.

This dude ruined the PS brand. It's fukked up that he gets to retire with a large golden parachute while 900 people lose their jobs. I hate how the workers are always on the losing end.

 

[Ziggiy]

What was the London studio’s operations?

 

[O³ (O cubed)]

Layoffs are unfortunately part of the deal. This is the cold blooded shyt though.

Jim is just making sure that he can hang out with the London cats after March 31st.

I was just joking. Jim is a cold motherfukker. Skinning and grinning with folks knowing that they'll be sacked in a few days.

People tired of cac tweets

These dudes enrich themselves literally off the misfortune of the devs that make the games they supposedly love.

That lady isn’t just some random twitter user, she’s a very respected and accomplished dev. shyt gotta be crazy difficult for devs in the industry right now

Holy shyt......................

Those losers need to get a life.
