Tom KalinskeGUEST
Um, but I do want to say, uh, Tom mentioned Sega Technical Institute that did Sonic 2.
Tom KalinskeGUEST
Um, that was really a big deal, and STI, uh, was started or, or was, uh, headed up originally by Mark Cerny, and I think that's, like, pretty awesome that, you know, we had Mark Cerny back then running the show.
Tom KalinskeGUEST
Um, and what was the other thing I wanted to say before I got to the animal games? There was another thing I wanted to point out.
Tom KalinskeGUEST
Oh, so Tom was the president of Sega of America, and I was there just, like, a minute before him.

Tom KalinskeGUEST
Um, I know that's, like, impractical on a lot of levels, but maybe not.
Tom KalinskeGUEST
And that's where you could innovate in technology.
Tom KalinskeGUEST
Uh, and that's what, you know, I mentioned, um, Mark Cerny.
Tom KalinskeGUEST
You know, Mark Cerny designed the PS4 and the PS5, and hopefully he's working his tail off on the PS6.
TomHOST
Does the PS6 have any plans to introduce neural rendering? Probably.
TomHOST
Right, Dan? I mean, we already know Mark Cerny is talking about AI.
TomHOST
I reached out to a couple of developers today.
TomHOST
Let me look.
BGHOST
Other news.
BGHOST
Mark Cerny says he's probably going to retire soon.
BGHOST
He's, you know...
BGHOST
I think he's been at it like 45 years or something.
BGHOST
That nigga look like a
Hard HeadPANELIST
fucking man.
Hard HeadPANELIST
I think Mark Cerny, he did.
Hard HeadPANELIST
He been good.
Joe RutherfordGUEST
Oh, wow.
Joe RutherfordGUEST
Missile Defense 3D from Mark Cerny.
Joe RutherfordGUEST
Really loved that game.
Joe RutherfordGUEST
That was the first 3D game I got.
SunnyHOST
All right.
SunnyHOST
Within the gaming industry, a new console generation only really begins when Mark Cerny appears at an event to introduce an absurdly in-depth breakdown of the technology going into the new system.
SunnyHOST
That's pretty much true.
SunnyHOST
Sony has partnered with the architect for generations now, and if all is well and good, he will likely front the reveal of the PlayStation 6 too.
SunnyHOST
However, it could be his last...
SunnyHOST
Cerny recently spoken of putting his feet up and retiring as he's nearing the end of his career, in his own words, in a new interview.
SunnyHOST
Mark Cerny is 62 years old and with the PS6 due to be out at some point in the next few years, he'll only be a couple of years away from the age at which people genuinely retire.
SunnyHOST
That means a PlayStation 6 will likely be the last PlayStation console he's the lead architect for, with a PS7 probably arriving another seven to eight years after that date.
RyanHOST
All right.
RyanHOST
We have, uh, some pretty big news from Mark Cerny, the PS5 system architect, also the market, uh, the architect of PS4 and PlayStation Vita.
RyanHOST
He's forming a new games foundation, a new program, it's a nonprofit co-founded with Geoff Keighley.
RyanHOST
So Geoff Keighley and Mark Cerny have started the Nova Games Foundation.
RyanHOST
This is completely unrelated to their main work, but it's a nonprofit philanthropic program where they're going to offer six-figure grants to 20 game designers each year for decades to come.
RyanHOST
It's a no strings attached funding process, which includes mentorship from other game industry leaders.
RyanHOST
From PS1 through 3, they'd make the hardware, not really tell anybody about it, then just send dev kits out.
RyanHOST
PS4, they op- they created an open dialogue.
Joel GilHOST
Así que hagan eso mismo.
Joel GilHOST
Otra cosa que les tenía que mencionar es que ya, ¿verdad? Eh, la mente maestra, Mark Cerny, ya está llegando al final de su carrera y va a lanzar lo que es un fellowship program con nada más y nada menos que, eh, Vir-- el, ¿verdad? El Game Awards Creator, el creador como tal, que es Geoff Keighley.
Joel GilHOST
Pues ellos están haciendo, ¿cómo diría yo? Ellos quieren ayudar a las futuras generaciones de desarrolladores a lanzar como sería su...
Joel GilHOST
¿Qué diría yo? Es como una beca.
Greg MillerHOST
Noise canceling, the one I have.
Nick ScarpinoHOST
At what point do I send my ears to Mark Cerny?
Greg MillerHOST
First p- place...
Greg MillerHOST
Ugh.
Simon ByronHOST
out I've been out of the PlayStation loop for a while what happens now is that they email you when you finish a game Sony emails you.
Simon ByronHOST
Mark Cerny emails you.
Simon ByronHOST
Congrats, Byronic Man.
Simon ByronHOST
Yeah, yeah.
10 MINS LATER
Ste CurranHOST
Go to Kojima expert Simon Barron.
Ste CurranHOST
How's this made you feel?
Simon ByronHOST
Well, actually, it's a good job that Mark Cerny emailed me directly over the weekend because I'll be going to reply to it now, actually, to tell him that I've been reading on the internet that it's all over for Sony now, actually, and everybody's blooming livid about this.
Simon ByronHOST
People can't believe it.
TerrenceHOST
shut up G off I
BradHOST
will give Jeff Keighley credit he's apparently doing a fund with Mark Cerny to help get like game creators like grants essentially that him and Mark Cerny are basically just like putting their own fucking money in which is a cool thing to do so I will give Jeff Keighley some props but yeah he will absolutely have a stern thing to say to so many at the game boards for sure so
