Breaking: Phil Harrison resigns from Sony Computer Entertainment

[ZippyDSMlee]

Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios president Phil Harrison has announced his formal resignation from the company, due to go into effect on February 29. Sony officially broke word of his resignation this morning.

Taking his place will be SCEI president and group CEO Kazuo Hirai, who will assume Harrison's duties on top of his own. It's unknown at the moment whether Sony will begin seeking out a replacement for Harrison, or whether Hirai's full-time responsibilities will engulf those of the former Worldwide Studios president.

First joining Sony back in 1992, Phil Harrison helped launch the first Playstation console, and has since played a major role in SCE's business, including presenting Sony's landmark keynote at last year's GDC. In a public statement, Harrison states that he is incredibly grateful to his "Playstation family," and will continue to support the platform and company in the future.

And you won it not with consumers but selling off assets and buying out the market,400M to warner alone and for what a market that makes up 4% of the home video market?

Silly Toshiba thinking cheaper consumer friendly hardware would do it, no you need to buy out the market screw what you are selling its how you sell it.

It is how Blu-Ray own.

Its how most things win today at least BD+ is out of the hands of the rootkit kings..lets hope macrovision dosent cock it up.

I also hope they double efforts on the 100+GB discs in 5 years they will be needed!

BR has great potential, I just hope they don't stop polishing it (well anything but the protection need not more non working movies).
