"We had the guy on the show yesterday that had made the petition to fire Jim Ryan and I was like, ‘dude, that’s way premature’ because Jim Ryan doesn’t owe anybody, Sony doesn’t owe anybody, the truth about what’s coming and what their counterpunch to Game is. What I can tell you is I know they are doing some stuff (...). There will be a response to Game ."
Unfortunately, Jaffe failed to find out what this answer would look like. He noted that in his opinion if it is limited to emulation of games from PlayStation, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 and adding, for example, the ability to stream videos, it will not be the right move (via VGC).
Jaffe's words can certainly be intriguing. The question is, how much truth there is in them and will Sony actually surprise with an idea that will be able to shake up the market a bit? Let's hope that everything will become clear soon.
