Did the PS4 cause Phil Harrison to Leave Sony?

by Matthew on August 6, 2008

philbackRumours are floating around, as usual, about the Playstation 4. This time it’s not actually about the console it’s self as such. The rumours according to “highly places sources” say that Phil Harrison left Sony due to the PS4 development which is about to kick off. The reason rumoured to be was that he couldn’t bring himself to go through the whole thing again.

May be true, may not be true, either way, it’s a possibility. We’re just surprised Sony took so long to get started on the PS4, seeing as companies normally start on their next console as soon as they’re finished the last one.

For more details on Phil Harrison check out the article over on Wikipedia. If Phil happens to stumble on this post then drop us an email and let us know if there is any truth to this rumour ;)

yes the ps3 is very good If Sony carry’s on making PlayStation it will be fantastic if you think about it u might get some problems on the ps3 online compared to the Xbox 360 but think about how long Microsoft has been doing the internet if Sony carry on i think they can beat Microsoft’s Xbox and that’s about it but i have gotta admit the Xbox 360 is a good console but if play station carry on they will be better no doubt about it.

i had my xbox 360 when it came out and Then i brought the ps3 60gb and then the 40gb when the ps3 came out.
And the build quality does last but no surprise there didn’t japan make it. Whereas my xbox has had a couple of problems and it also rips up the discs sometimes but yes the PlayStation 3 is fantastic well done im already looking forward to the ps4 lol it was worth the hassle Phil it was a success wasn’t it. the ps4 would be amazing

Hmm..well first off i think the price for a playstation four would be outrageous when people have just not long ago bought a ps3.

Why is Sony shifting from the game console as a control point of game provisioning?

people!? its not a ‘waste of money’ having bought a PS3 now! their talking about a 2011/2012 release date, thats 4 years! i you bought an expensive mobile phone 4 years ago it would suck by todays standards, i dot think you lot realise how long 4 years is.

the ps4 will be lauch in 2010 in Japan and 2011 in North America and Europe. the grafix will be better, it will have 4 or 5 tb(terra bites) CELL proccesor and backwards compatibility with ps1 ps2 ps3 and psp. i also heard a psp2 and a nintendo ds2 will be lauch in 2009 and the lifestime of psp,ds and ps2 will end in 2010. i am waiting for ps4
