Katsumi This isn't a really good idea from him in my opinion. He left one of the largest companies in the world for a failing social game company? it doesn't make much sense to me. Hopefully he can turn the tables for Zynga once again


I would hope so... no way I would have resigned


Me neither, he probably received 5 digits on his bank account monthly...
