He was one of my favorites to watch on IGN and always digged his Persona knowledge. He'll be missed and I hope he's on to something even better.

Andrew Goldfarb is leaving IGN to join Sucker Punch
- Thread starter Coolduderedux
- Start date
Before, he had left IGN to work at Gearbox right? Wonder where he's going next.
Best of luck to him, he's a top chap.

My hope is he's moving to KF but probably not. Wonder if he's heading to do PR for a studio or publisher.
God stop I can only get so erect. But for real goldfarb, moriarty, and Miller was the best beyond cast ever
Bring on clements too and baby, you got yourself a stew cooking
He played through Persona 5 in Japanese...without knowing Japanese! Best of luck to him, he's always come across as a good guy on IGN.
That is a shame, though he hadn't been on beyond in ages.
I still like daemon Hatfield and I like Sam Claiborne too but there aren't to many others that stand out.

Skyrocketing rent in the Bay Area and IGN being unable/unwilling to afford to pay their employees enough?
Having said that, they must have driven a dump truck full of money to Brian Altano's house to get him to stay as long as he has.
I remember when we first started DANGEN, we got interviewed by Andrew at BitSummit. Super nice guy, and so so jazzed about all the cool Japanese indie games at the event. Can't wait to see what he does next.
I always wonder why people in the games industry are so secretive about where their next job is going to be. Every time someone is leaving a position it is followed up with, "can't wait to share more soon!", but you (presumably) were already hired at your next job so why keep it under wraps? /semi-relatedthought
Regardless, best of luck to him in his next work, and wow IGN has become a revolving door the last few years, who would have thought it would be a stepping stone for so many people?

Gaming journalism is usually a short career because, sadly, it really doesn't pay, especially considering you more or less have to live in one of the country's most expensive counties to do it. You make apartment with a roommate money not raise a family money. So once you do your time you inevitably move on.
haha, yea. maybe a mod should edit the title to say he joined sucker punch.

Nothing against Sucker Punch....but I would not want to work there right now. They're wrapping up their project later this year (which looks badass) and may not know what's next for their 200 people on staff

Well at least he's going to a much better employer.
Sony actually seems like a company I'd want to work for right now, plus Communications Manager seems to be a pretty safe gig. If Ghost of Tsushima does well (and based on how it looks it bloody well should) Sony will probably want to get a sequel in the pipeline ASAP.
