/// EA CEO Andrew Wilson Wants to Establish a “Player-First Culture” Within the Company
During the GamesBeat 2014 conference where EA CEO Andrew Wilson mentioned that the highest-rated games get the balance of innovation and polish “right,” the exec also cited one of the key priorities for the publisher with him at the helm, and it’s a “player-first culture.”
The first was really establish that player-first culture back inside the company…My belief is that in the future of our industry, in a world where there are more devices that play games, more people creating content to play on those devices, that the relationships that you have with the players are going to be the deciding factor between success and failure. Your ability to actually reach those players and deliver them entertainment is really going to be based on that relationship that you have with them.

/// Sony Possibly Testing New PS4 Firmware Features
The listing for the Compatibility Tester possibly indicates that Sony are testing out a new firmware update. The candidate’s main responsibility includes checking released and newly submitted titles on firmware currently under development, testing new firmware features and report any/all problems found in firmware. This of course does not confirm that Sony are indeed working on a new firmware for the PlayStation 4 but there is a good chance since the job description is rather obvious.
