A regular on Major Nelson's "blogcast", Greg Canessa (former GM, XBLA) usually shows up and tries to feed us some B.S. when people like me lose patience with the trickle of games getting squeezed out of the XBLA team.
That is what I will remember him for.
I hope this change means they will have a real stream of games soon.
Xbox Live Arcade group manager Greg Canessa has quit Microsoft to join casual games outfit PopCap. PopCap looks likely to further extend its interests from the PC to consoles and mobile devices. Canessa spoke to Next-Gen about the move, claiming that PopCap could be “the next Blizzard” More...
Next Blizzard you say? I lol'd
Apparently the "or EA" part of that quote was so ridiculous they cut that from the headline.
The funny thing is Greg could potentially be involved now with bringing these Pop Cap casual games to the Sony or Nintendo Consoles.
Don't remember who Greg is? Here is a pair of Interviews on IGN from July 06
