Dissecting Kinda Funny's Interview With Shuhei Yoshida | Sacred Symbols+, Episode 433

Recently, gaming outlet Kinda Funny conducted an interesting two-plus hour interview with exiting PlayStation executive Shuhei Yoshida, who has opted to leave Sony after nearly 40 years at the company, with more than 30 working on PlayStation itself. And while he's typically a very disciplined interviewee -- well media-trained and loath to spill the beans -- this interview is easily his most interesting one yet. Unrestrained by a megalithic corporation for the first time ever, Shu had a lot to say on various issues of import to PlayStation nerds: Vita's failure, PS3's tumultuous beginnings, forecasting game sales, scuttlebutt about the likes of Gran Turismo and Horizon, why he opted to abandon SOCOM, Killzone, and Resistance, and a whole lot more. To work through all of it, I (Colin) recruited Sacred Symbols co-host Dustin Furman, as well as Summon Sign's Brad Ellis. Together, we dive deep, and hope you'll join us for the journey.
