It's a shame he's going to Crapcom.

Konami is such a good company. Why move away?

Hmmm. . . wondering if he's gonna really be able to turn Capcom around or if he's throwing away a terrific job. I'm leaning toward the latter, sadly. . .

While Capcom definately needs some fresh leadership, if this guy is going to Capcom Europe, he probably won't be in a position to actually do anything. Capcom Japan is the place where all the actual decisions are made.

Hmm, interesting switch.

From one sinking ship to another.

This is like switching tickets from the Titanic to the Britannic. Capcom has a poisonous relationship with its own fan base lately which is only overshadowed by how badly Konami has treated their flagship titles lately. I still want to like both companies, but it has been really hard lately. As bad as most people felt about RE 6, SFXT and the debacle of Mega Man's anniversary I suppose it can only get better? Shoot me.

Seems like Capcom's on the inside track to do some even more stellar work in the future.

Good, CapCom needs some new people to maybe help the franchise out. Lets just see what happens.

His (her?) name is "Neo"? Awesome.
