Christopher Dring speaks to SCEE president about NGP.
The path from the PlayStation 1 to the upcoming PlayStation 5 lines up neatly, but only if you’re looking at it numerically. In actuality, for more than 25 years the PlayStation team has had to navigate some of the industry’s most difficult terrain. During that time, a dedicated team of visionaries, engineers, and software developers established a brand from scratch, propelled it to unprecedented heights, struggled to maintain dominance, and eventually returned to what initially made them so successful.
Andrew House is no longer at Sony, but he still thinks that consoles like the PlayStation 4 have big future ahead of them.
I still remember how the misinformed media tried to push a doom and gloom narrative for the future of consoles at the beginning of the decade
Didn't even notice it earlier but PlayStation already has it's own GAAS as part of it's PSN service model. It's "Free-to-Play" games & "Streaming", ala PSNow as part of it's "Adaptive Monetization ", according to Ex-PlayStation Boss Andrew House.
Consoles have successfully existed for the past 46 years and they’ll successor exist for the next 46 years.
Former Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Andrew House gives an uplifting farewell after stepping down from his position at PlayStation.

I’m really going to miss this guy. Thank you for your help bringing PlayStation to where it is today.
a most fitting farewell, big thanks and good luck to Mr.Andrew House.
if MS want to save the XBox brand they have the perfect man available. and get rid of the trolls like Greenberg/Penello/Nelson and the guy who only talks the talk Phil Spencer.

Announced on the same day people started blabbing he was leaving.
"John Kodera promoted to President and Chief Executive Officer, Andrew House to be appointed Chairman"
"Current President and Global CEO Andrew House will transition from operational management of SIE, but will remain with SIE as Chairman through the year to ensure a smooth transition."
He is ending his time at SIE at the end of the year. He hasn't announced any future plans. It's unfortunate I liked him a lot as well, but the reality is he is leaving Sony either to retire or take up a new career somewhere else.
@Ashlen,
Thanks for that clarification. He will certainly be missed. He stayed through a not so pleasant time when others might have bailed. Great guy with a lot of insight.
