why is this news in the playstation 3 area?

[ukilnme]

It does not matter where the news is posted anymore. The trolls around here will find it and flame about it even if it does not concern them or their console or console maker of choice.

[GunShotEddy]

Because there isn't a Microsoft or Sony channel. So the most affected consoles from the respective companies are used as the channels.

You may just not know that SCEE is "Sony Computer Entertainment Europe". They handle "PS3" stuff in "Europe".

As for trolls, yes, they'll find something to flame about no matter what.

[gamesR4fun]

Kinda explains this guys actions for the past few months on the sony side lol

[harpua]

apparently he really hates quality control, so it looks like he found his dream job.

[PSWe60]

Dan Maher has left Sony.

[Fishy Fingers]

All the best to him. Id love the chance to just work for one of them, let alone both.

[Scott_Steinberg]

[Condoleezza Rice]

I googled him,and I got Links and Pictures of Stained Glass Art.

NOT a key person.

[KingME]

you also have Condoleezza Rice as your avatar. so uh...

[PimpHandHappy]

o the Sony guy i never heard of

well atleast they know where the talent is

[Varsarus]

BETRAYER!

[Lucreto]

I doubt he is betraying anyone just like anyone he wanted something new and I am sure he was placed in a room with lots of solicitors making him sign forms of secrecy

[toughNAME]

There comes a time when even the Blu ray special features become a bore

(if that isn't good enough...uhh...something about a sinking ship)

in other news,

Sony Janitor leaves for Microsoft Job. He joins from Sony Computer Entertainment Custodial Special Task Force. His appointment is effective immediately.

[Alcohog]

ya srsly

[BigKev45]

Well, Dan knows that Microsoft is better then Sony.

[Surfman]

No he don't, thats why he went with MS. He don't know.

[clintos59]

I think it is the other way around, and we all know MS for buying ppl or anything out. Like they say, money talks. :)

[Dave2001]

LOL!!! Thanks for the laugh man i needed it.

[Surfman]

he dont know that MS is not better at all.

[KingME]

That guy changed jobs, who cares where and why. The only thing relevant here is that a guy left sony to work for microsoft, so what. Move on. It's amazing how this has become an issue as to which company is better. Hell, I'd work for either.

[Danja]

So how is this gonna affect Sony...?

Flame Bait...!!!

[Chubear]

Sounds like a mole got found out and jumped ship quick or something. XD

[Kaz Hirai]

This FOOL has made a grave mistake! He will regret this, King Kaz will make sure of that.......

MWAH-HA-HA-HA!!!

[cr33ping_death]

who gives a sh!t?

[Iron Man 2]

Agreed,no one important,bubble!;)

[i rule]

they just keep jumping ship

[PSWe60]

like the 4 microsoft executives that left with in a week about 3 months ago?

[BrianC6234]

Microsoft has people leaving in droves. This is just one guy. One guy I've never even heard of even. The only reason this is reported is an Xbot wanted to make Microsoft look good. I don't think it makes them look good though. It's not like they stole Sony's CEO or anything.

[GiantEnemyCrab]

very smart move my friend, the Xbox team will welcome your insight.
First Phil going to Atari and now Daniel at MS both shedding their fishhead jobs. Bravo you have both redeemed yourselves.

Quick somebody get a bucket, I think the ship is sinking!

[sabbath420]

Did they jump ship to sony?

[LinuxGuru]

You don't see ME cryin' about it.
