Take-Two's CEO is probably the world's only person to refuse the chance to play GTA 6 because "I'm not a gamer" - his role is to "get out of their way"
Strauss Zelnick thinks🔥 it's best to leave developers like Rockstar Games alone

Millions of gamers seem absolutely ravenous about getting their hands - or, heck, even just their eyeballs - on GTA 6. But Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick, who leads the parent company of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Rockstar Games, just admitted he hadn't t💛ouched the open-world behemoth much because he's simply not a gamer. Forgive him, though, his reasons are admirable.
When asked if he's played GTA 6 in an interview with CNBC, Zelnick simply said "I'm not a gamer, not a lot - I don’t play video games, I'm not the consumer-in-chie♏f."

He later went on to explain that he still shares his "opinions pretty openly" with the developers under Take-Two's umbrella, which also owns 2K Games like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Borderlands 4, but 💛he believes also being a consumer wouldn't be in the company's best interest.
"My role is to a🥃ttract, retain, and motivate the best talent in the business, and then g🐈etting out of their way," he explained, which sounds more ideal than a suit making sweeping gameplay decisions, despite not knowing anything about games themselves.
"I think being the consumer-in-chief in the entertainment business as the CEO is probably a mistake," he added. "I wasn’t the consumer-in-chief in the movie business or the television business or the ไmusic business, even though I certainly could read a script and I definitely love music… but that's not my role."
Earlier in that chat, Zelnick made some lofty comments about the incoming behemoth: "Rockstar Games is trying to create the best thing anyone's ꦿever seen in entertainmen."
