I'm sure they'll be an article about this later, but until then, let's have a place to congratulate him on his new position and discuss it.

Well this is cool. Maybe he'll be bringing Kessler coffee and sandwiches.

Good for Mr. Drake. So I'm guessing he'll be doing something related to public relations?

Congrats to Mr. Diet Coke!

Hooray!! Sony finally has a new Fun Czar!

I would just like to say from my phone that I fucking called that

Coca-Cola got robbed! (unless this is a convoluted plan to bop Dave Lang again)

Edit: Is he working on Parappa the Rapper? *GASP*

P

That's a pretty good get for Sony and Adam Boyes.

Good for him!

No wonder he was working so hard to get that PlayStation game crowdfunded...

Looks like Harmonix is definitely done for. :(

Wow, Lebron's news is going to be completely overshadowed.

@spraynardtatum:

Nah, he's been promoted to Fun Emperor. A Funperor, if you will.

Congrats to John Drake on his new job! What a great fit. Plus, he may be around SF more often, meaning he may be able to join the GB crew once in a while.

do we have an official title?

Killer get.

Grats Mr. Drake.

Man, that's a good get for Sony.

JOHN DRAKE JOINING PLAYSTATION

LEBRON GOING BACK TO CLEVELAND

WHAT A DAY

Director of "swingin them hips"

He's totally working on Vib-Ribbon 2.

Good for him, will miss him at Harmonix but at least he will still be around.

Congrats to John Drake! Now we need a Super Drake Tracker app on PSN.

@gideonamos: This is the sole reason he is going.

Congrats Drake! He's going to do some great work over there.

Good get Boyes, Good get .

I wonder what he'll be doing over there at Sony.

please send all shenmue related requests to @johntdrake

Good luck Drake!

@gideonamos: The hype would be real

It's very presumptuous of you to think Kessler is let out of his cage long enough to consume any sort of food!

I'm hoping to see those John Drake shenanigans on the E3 stage next year!

Really great news, big congratulations to both John and PlayStation.

Good for JD. Sony and Boyes did well here.

Congratulations Drake! Time for a Diet Coke...

Working on Amplitude from both sides.

Fucking nepotism...

Haha just kidding, kind of. In all seriousness that's a big come up for the man and I wish him much success with the PSMafia.

Big congrats to Mr. Drake. He will do well there.

This just further illustrates the sexual objectification of men in media. I find this revolting and offensive.

But I also really want a cold, refreshing Coke-a-Cola now.

@extragingerbrew: Holy shit. That exists, huh?

damm, sony continues to build a real powerhouse Team.

Congrats to Mr. Drake! The more Giant Bomb family members that are fed into the PlayStation machine the more likely a Windjammers reboot is, right?

Lebron has shit on Drake. Good for him, glad to see what he does in his new position.

@development: More than you know!

Interesting seeing Drake go from a company with such close ties to Microsoft and motion gaming to Sony of all places. I hope the match works for all involved.

What the hell did Drake do anyway?

No really. In all the years he's been around Giant Bomb acting like a Gremlin not once has anyone actually mentioned what he does.

...It's at the top of this page and has been mentioned probably hundreds of times.

Sony is signing up a lot of quality staffers, I've no doubt John Drake will follow in Adam Boyes footsteps in progressing PlayStation.

A lot of "friends of Giantbomb" at Sony. Awesome. Congrats John Drake!

Hopefully Sony will let John Drake be John Drake when he comes on Giantbomb next. We want uncensored JD, dammit.

Yea nepotism! J/k good to hear he found a gig in a pretty fast order.

Damn, that's quite the step up! gzgz

Now Sony has two Drakes to call their own.
