February 7, 2012 by Ian Miles Cheong

God of War creator David Jaffe explains his departure from Eat Sleep Play.

Following the previous report that Eat Sleep Play's David Jaffe is leaving the company, the man himself posted details on Twitter confirming it.

"But if I may clear this up," wrote David Jaffe. "I was not laid off. I co-own the company. There were a few lay offs and they were painful to do for all involved. I'm leaving because—again—games are just getting too big to direct from 300 miles away, and I miss the day to day of working directly with a team."

Jaffe, who created the God of War series and Twisted Metal, is expected to pursue more game development with a more permanent home base for his next venture.
