The one and only Kazuo “Ridge RAAACER!” Hirai has stepped down from Sony’s Chairman and Playstation head department. He will continue working with the board in a part time role.
He will always be remembered as the guy who helped gained awareness of the Playstation brand in the west and led the company through its PSN downtime hell.
Good luck Hirai, your genuine smiles will be missed.
He always looked like a shady dude, like he would leave the E3 stage and start an evil laughter
