Ex-Midway guy named VP of sales for Sega

Failure begets failure. Good job Sega! Keep hiring a lineage of success.

When you're the animated corpse of Sega, you have to take the detritus that you can get.

Kids, there's nothing more cool than being hugged by someone you like. But if someone tries to touch you in a place or in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable, THAT'S NO GOOD!

Sega, as your former CEO, I have one thing to say.

WHAT COULD GO WRONG

Sega, once again playing the 'reverse psychology' card.

Sega doesn't need anymore bad assets. I don't know how much this guy had to do with Midway's failure, but I still wouldn't hire him to be a leader in the marketing department, maybe an associate.

But I do know...

i just wish sega would sell all the licenses and rights of sonic to nintendo

And yet in spite your brilliant retort, everything I've said is still true. Funny how that works. Derp

i'll never understand how these guys continue to get jobs after their companies fail. sure i don't know all the details or his track record overall, but i do know that he was in a very high position in Midway....which just died. maybe i'm missing something but it must be nice to know that once you're that high up in a company once, you'll apparently always have a job.

Isn't this guy one of the many jokers who were responsible for profiting from deliberately running Midway into the ground?

judging by your colorful language, you are not a business major also, are you?

Degree in economics and I graduated from a business High School actually. But thats not really relevant.

After creating the Werehog they're doing the honorable thing, and commiting economic Seppuku.

Let's not call it death until Sega and Ex-Midway powers unite to give use a true project that represents the unfortunate nature of this marriage.

There will be blood.

So an executive from a company that failed to survive the transition from their dominance in the 90's is going to help head up a company that is heavily struggling to transition from their dominance in the 90's?

Not just that Midway failed, but Midway failed due to very similar problems as SEGA's.
