PlayStation executive becomes playable game character

Sony PlayStation's Shuhei Yoshida is one of the most personable and savvy executives you'll ever meet. He's funny, passionate and he's extremely active on Twitter -- typically gushing about over his own brand or what games he's excited to play. Now, he's going to be in one: Capy Games announced today that the Japanese executive is going to be a playable character in the PS4 and Vita versions of Super Time force Ultra. Yoshida's weapon of choice? His smartphone, of course.

The short trailer (embedded below) shows a business-suited up Yoshida wielding his smartphone, pummeling enemies with emoticons and a variety of tweets. One reads "I love PS4," the other is a deadly hashtag: #STFU (the acronym for the game, not a rude demand for verbal silence). It looks amazing and hilarious. Not familiar with Yoshida? Read up: he's had a major hand in the history of PlayStation.
