Just Add Water CEO Stewart Gilray clarifies that contrarily to what had been reported, the performance gap between PS4 & X1 isn't disappearing at all.
From GamesIndustry.biz: "Stewart Gilray, the founder and CEO of long-running UK developer Just Add Water has died.
Gilray has led the company for over 15 years, overseeing its growth as a provider of production and development services to various studios across the UK, including Codemasters, Rebellion and Bossa."
Sad news ... I was following his conditions on twitter. He was suffering from Covid-induced breathing problems.
RIP.
Sad news, I started to follow his work when JAW were given the Oddworld remake project and continued to follow their work afterwards. He was one of the good guys in the industry - RIP.
Gamerhub sat down with Stewart Gilray, CEO of Just Add Water for a nice chat about the gaming industry and his incredible career so far!
PlayStationing writes: "The gaming world was a little shocked to hear the announcement from Tequila Works that they had reacquired their IP for RiME from Sony. However, it seems that Stewart Gilray of Just Add Water looks like he is interested in helping the studio out."
I would advise everyone to read this before feeling anything for Rime.

There is something really wrong being as no real updates or gameplay exist from a game announced in 2013
I was looking forward to this game, loved the artstyle but now I honestly fear we will never see it finished.
We all knew this since day one.Both systems will get better as the years progress but one of the consoles will always be ahead of the other due to the hardware.
"Actually that is NOT what he said. I spoke to Lorne afterwards and what he meant when speaking to that guy was that budgets, schedules and perceivable differences would narrow, NOT that the Xbox One performance is improving to align with PS4, that is just physically impossible. The PS4 has MORE COMPUTE units, and faster member and a whole bunch of things, that would make that physically impossible to happen."
Looks like the author of that piece was just trying to connect unneeded dots or was trying to past off misinformation.
Also to the author of this memory is spelt *member* :p.
So why the change of heart!? Clarification wasn't needed for one side of the fence! The other side....well that's a different story!
You can't fit 100 pounds into a sack that's designed to hold 50 pounds.
The exclusive software is the key differentiator. I own an X1, knowing the PS4 is more powerful. X1 is the Halo console and that is my favorite series, nuf said.
If anything I would have expected a performance gap to form later on in this console generation. Not right out of the gate. That doesn't seem to be something you can just 'catch up' with.
