Talk:Larry Probst

Untitled
Ok this stub is embaressing. Argueably the most important man in Videogames and nothing. Anyone know anything they could add? (unsigned)

...he's not really important "in Videogames". He's certainly an able businessman, but if a meteor had struck the guy back in 1999, he'd just have been replaced by another suit and we'd never have noticed the difference. Not a coder, designer, artist, or anything important. Just another management type. 69.129.196.12 (talk) 22:02, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

From http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/2004/05/09/BUG8V6FQGI1.DTL "Q: What game do you play most, and do you know all the cheat codes? A: No, I don't know the cheat codes. And to be very honest, I don't spend a lot of time playing games. I spend a lot of time watching people play games. My most favorite games tend to be the ones selling the best at that moment. So right now, my favorite game is Fight Night. Q: So you don't play the games yourself? A: Occasionally. I'm not somebody who spends 20 hours a week playing video games, but I spend a lot of time looking at products. In fact, all of our senior management team does. Our executives are immersed in the creative process whether they like it or not." I removed the sentence saying that he doesn't play videogames. Alexanderwales 10:54, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
