He joined on May 4th. Apparently "he will direct the company’s production and engineering strategy and manage the business operations of its studios in Birmingham, Guildford, Kuala Lumpur and at its headquarters in Warwickshire, UK. He reports to Barry Jafrato, SVP Brand."

Says the press release, "Jamie Macdonald has over 15 years of studio management experience and has been responsible for developing such innovative products and franchises as The Getaway, EyeToy:Play and SingStar. He has also been responsible for the groundbreaking PS3 network services the SingStore, MySingStar Online and PlayStation Home.
