"Mark Cerny took credit for it all. All Mark really did is keep the Naughty Dog team in line (while at the same time coddling them) and solve any math/programming obstacles they had… and also, was the “face” of Universal Interactive, so Mark was the one who got to meet with the Sony Executives, got to fly to Japan and party with everyone from Shigeo Maruyama (then the head of Sony Computer Entertainment of Japan) to even Shigeru Miyamoto (creator of Mario Bros and many other games for Nintendo.) Mark Cerny manipulated everything in order to raise his own status and fame even though he didn’t actually “make” anything. He and David did not like each other at all… actually, nobody liked Mark Cerny except Jason Rubin who new Mark was a stepping stone for Naughty Dog."
