Why is it every time I hear from any Sony Representative now-a-days they talk about games that really wont sell their system. With the systemwar looking bleak for Sony right now, I would have at least expected a fight from Sony. But in the midst of a horrible launch, and yes I do mean horrible, no games to play other than R:FOM, no marketing for any upcoming titles, it just simply looks like Sony is in DENIAL about their state. The D.I.C.E. is going on now and the only big news to hear from Sony was mostly a damn duck game that you can download from the Playstation Store. I dont know about anybody else but this upsets me that a giant like Sony is four months into its existance and they really only have one title to show for. I am convinced that Phil Harrison is the whipping boy for Sony and if all keeps going bad for Sony he will take the fall for their nonchalant behavior, since Phil is their mouth piece for now.

Sony's games will come, but they are not doing so hot right now.  Maybe this will give their executive team a wake up call.  I hate arrogant companies that think they know what is best for their customer.

He's a representative of the company. What do you want him to say? "We've made a bunch of screw-ups and are in a big hole and don't know how to get out"? It's his job to be in denial.

It is, but the worst part about that job is you get canned (or usually told to resign) for being in that state for too long. It's a lose/lose if you can't turn it around quickly.

Thank you.   Finally someone that understands business.   It is called spin control.  Why do you think George Bush says we are winning in Iraq.  Because he wants to keep His party(company) on top.

He's not in denial, he's a business person. What do you expect - Phil to come out and go "forget PS3, man I got a 360 and I've been playing Gears nonstop!" Ridiculous. Of course he's going to come out and talk about Motorstorm and show off a tilt-sensitive game. Phil makes a lot of money to tell people how the PS3 rocks his world.

Let me tell you the problem with Sony's strategy. First off, they get mostof the developer support from 3rd parties whose ONLY care is MONEY--not that first party games aren't for cash, but the main point is that they hold no loyalties. Meanwhile, Nintendo and Microsoft have HUGE in-house developer support for their consoles that sell incredibilly well. For all the 3rd parties care, games like Assassin's Creed, Unreal Tournament, Virtual Fighter 5, etc.. all belong multiplat because that is what makes more $$$$. Nintendo does not have this problem, because they can drive a system with their own personal developer support. Microsoft does not have this problem because they, too, can drive a system with their personal developer support. Now, look at the PS3. There are no games!!!

No idea why this Phil Harrison keeps lying. Same thing with Nintendo
