Before I could stop laughing at Ken Kutaragi's comments in the previous article, I came across another great article over at Gamespot regarding an interview that Phil Harrison, Sony's president of SCE's Worldwide Studios had with German magazine Der Spiegel. Not to be outdone by Mr. Kutaragi, Harrison went as far as to state that the Playstation 3 will perform so well, it will make the PC, and by extension Microsoft's operating systems obsolete;
"We believe that the PS3 will be the place where our users play games, watch films, browse the Web, and use other [home] computer functions, The PlayStation 3 is a computer. We do not need the PC."- Phil Harrison as quoted in the article at Gamespot.
I don't know folks, is it really right to use a supercomputer for such mundane things as watching films and surfing the 'net? Shouldn't it be trying to map the human genome or something? I guess it's a moral dilemma for each purchaser to face on their own.
All this PS3 information just makes me wonder... will it make me breakfast in the morning too? Head on over to Gamespot here for all the details and to see Harrison essentially say "nuh uh" in reference to implications that Sony simply decided to just copy Nintendo's motion control idea at the last minute so they'd have something new to show at E3.
