The new information is where OP...?
Jim Ryan ain’t get fired for nothing.
Sony been scrambling for a while now. They are selling consoles off the strength of the brand, but they are flailing around trying to figure how to cash in on said customer base.
Everything is kinda, maybe. Won’t go all in on PSVR. The handheld is not a real handheld, can’t even stream from PSnow which they’ve been all over the place with the messaging and strategy in itself.
Their PC presence is unreliable, bad ports coming in at Random times whenever they want to release it.
They talked about making Service games going forward but they are way behind with that
They were supposed to have 6 of them out by now, and they still just have the one.
No imminent game releases past spiderman in their “single party Catalog”.
“Insiders” ain’t wrong to be looking at Sony and Jim like

Bungie is good at developing fps games. Something Sony is sorely lacking in their catalog at the moment. Should be putting them to develop a good Sci fi fps akin to what Halo was for Microsoft.
Games as a service was a trend not necessarily a staying thing. Like it will always be there but its popularity wont be the same. Gamers catch on to the same tactics being used over and over and at the end of the day the core gamers only have so much money to spend on these games.

With Ryan gone, my concern isn't GAAS, but the first-party AA-level games. Ryan really squashed those. Why is Clap Hanz out here making mobile games instead of Everybody's Golf PS5? Where is a new Ape Escape? Why not try to revive some old Sony IP at the AA level like Jumping Flash or Vib Ribbon?
Ryan killing first-party AA games when Nintendo steadily profits off of their own AA games is stupid. Even Microsoft puts out decent AA-level games under their banner. We need a reversal of course on that.
