In a Bonus Round video interview with Jaffe on GameTrailers, he says "I probably would have taken the Blu-ray out and sold it for less money." Considering how Sony is really pushing the Blu-ray as one of the main reasons to own a PS3, he's certainly swimming upstream. Jaffe (pictured above with a Nintendo neckstrap *gasp*) is probably the only Sony employee openly questioning the Blu-ray inclusion.
He not only rails on the high price of the hardware, but also on the mindset of the game development industry that says every game has to be a giant blockbuster with a huge story. During a GameDaily interview, commenting on working on God of War, he said "It's like, 'F**k you capitalist society that says all I need to do is work and contribute to the bottom line. F**k you up your a**.' I want a life." You can almost hear Sony's PR department cringing from here.
Instead, Jaffe wants to see a return to games that focus on the gameplay, not the story. He cites Calling All Cars as an example of a small game that is cheap, fun to play, and didn't have an extremely long development cycle. "I want to do games that take 10-13 months; I want to do games that aren't always story-driven, that are more gameplay-driven."
