Sony's Harrison on Sony Arrogance

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the it-is-opposite-day dept.

Joystiq had the chance to exchange a few words with Sony's Phil Harrison at the UK Develop Conference. They asked him some hard questions about the crazy comments that have been coming out of the company since E3. From the article: "There's always going to be a risk when you are market leader for ten years that we start to lose perspective; and we have to make sure that we don't lose perspective. But I don't think we're arrogant, I think we have to recognize that we're in a highly competitive industry and that anything that we say will be eternally editorialized by professionals and consumers alike. So we're always in the spotlight." After the tape was off he snarked that he hadn't been asked very nice questions. Poor guy, having to answer questions that aren't 'How awesome is the PS3 going to be?'

    This is despite my best efforts to drop it onto pavement, into puddles, and so on.

    Best efforts?

    If you try to drop your PS2 onto the ground, and miss, I think it says more about you than the PS2's quality. ;)
