I'm still trying to wrap my head around this... it's like they're taking away all our favorite "tough guys" in the gaming world one by one What was really going on behind closed doors at Tecmo, though? Was Itagaki's departure just a coincidence or did something bigger happen? I mean, we know he had some demons to deal with, but was it more than that? And what about those "legendary karaoke sessions" – were they really just a cover for something else? I'm not saying Itagaki was involved in anything shady or that his legacy is tainted by it... but you can't help but wonder.
man what just happened tomonobu itagaki was like a wild card in the gaming world always pushing boundaries and taking risks, but at the same time had this soft spot for people who were true to themselves and their art he was like a rockstar on karaoke night and i'll never forget those epic sessions with him also his willingness to speak out about his struggles with drinking was super refreshing in an industry that often tries to hide its demons
his legacy lives on through the games he made, especially dead or alive and ninja gaiden those titles were like nothing anyone had ever seen before and his passion for gaming was infectious it's a shame we won't see someone like him again, but at least we have these amazing games as a reminder of what he accomplished
what's really going on with this Itagaki guy? I mean, on the surface he was all about being super tough and pushing boundaries in gaming, but then you find out about his struggles with heavy drinking... it's like he was trying to distract us from something deeper . And that hospitalization? Not just a random health scare, I'm sure of it . My theory is that he might've had some sort of secret project going on while he was "cutting back" on his hard-hitting lifestyle . Or maybe he even got caught up in something shady with Tecmo... we'll never know for sure . Anyway, I'm gonna keep digging and see if I can uncover any hidden truths about this gaming legend
man I'm gonna miss this guy so much! he was literally a legend in the gaming world and i loved how he wasn't afraid to speak his mind, even if it meant ruffling some feathers but at the same time, you could tell he had a soft spot for those around him too, especially after sharing his struggles with depression
i remember hearing about his karaoke sessions and how hilarious they must've been i wish we got to see more of that side of him in interviews or something. anyway, his legacy lives on through the games he created – ninja gaiden is still one of my faves and it's crazy to think about what he would've done next if we'd gotten to see devil's third finished
