Sony Developer Relations Manager Jumps Ship
You know, we as a neutral news source aren’t supposed to be participating in the current Sony hate wave, but even for the biggest fanboys, there’s no denying that the company has been struggling since the announcement of the Playstation 3. Manufacturing issues, high-level employees leaving, questionable marketing strategies…sadly, it looks like the trend is continuing.
SCEA‘s long-standing manager of Developer Relations Mark DeLoura has quit his position and will soon be heading to Ubisoft North America‘s office as a technical director. At his new job, he is responsible for the quality of third-party games published by Ubisoft and the coordination with game developers wanting to work with the company.
DeLoura is the second important employee to leave Sony after Senior Director Of Communications and Brand Development Molly Smith resigned from the company in June. DeLoura, a well-known face in the industry and author of several books on Game Development, had been with Sony since 1994 and has not stated the reasons for his departure.
