This week, PlayStation announced that it had pulled out of publishing Hideo Kojima's next game, Physint. But the company didn't give a reason. So I made some calls. Here's why PlayStation bailed and why Xbox snapped Kojima right up: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

🎉 I remember Stephanie Sterling wisecracking about this exact expectation, but with Take-Two Interactive's CEO Strauss Zelnick and the lifetime sales of GTA V. Their status as the Cassandra of the video game industry continues to be (sadly) reaffirmed time and time again.
