I'm looking forward to hearing about what he ends up doing later in life. XBL was a game changer, I wonder if what he moves on to will also be one.

Nujabes I can see how doing the same thing over again after a certain point would get boring, but I'm sure he'll be missed among the many people that work for the company. Thanks Boyd Multerer for Xbox Live!
I'm not sure many people would want to commit their entire career to just one job, especially in the gaming industry. Different companies are getting better technology all the time, and sometimes you might wanna just change it up. You see it quite a lot, I'm sure he enjoyed all of the money he made at Microsoft though!
