Phil Harrison has been an anomaly. Twenty years ago, Harrison took early steps into the games business as a graphic artist and game designer, working for hire in the flourishing UK development scene. By the time he became one of the most public faces of the PlayStation, he was a seasoned executive - but Harrison's roots in development have always been evident, and have always made him into a distinctive part of the Sony machine.
GL compiles a list of some of the most mind-blowing video game narrative twists in recent memory, from The Last of Us to Outer Wilds

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
This is a great read... I am shocked at some of the details and now understand why he would leave...
Thanks for the artical...
I don't get it. What did he actually do? To me he was just a face. He is credited with making Singstar, Buzz, and the Eyetoy happen, but none of those appeal to Americans.
Why Phil left is this, folks...
Phil has been in Sony and the workings of Sony for so long... Kaz has too, but Phil has been a software guy and a programmer for them and then moved on up in the company. He was and should have been a shoe in for CEO of the company when Ken left.
Simple and clean... When Kaz got the bid and gig, Phil got hurt by it. Rightfully so... Phil left because he knew it was a good exit out. All his projects are near completion (home, eight days, getaway) and he saw Blu-rays win a good sign and Sony's climb in sales a good sign.
Phil leaving the company when they were in trouble wasn't going to help their image. Phil leaving on a good note wo't hurt them. simple and clean. Phil likes Sony, he simply didn't like the politics in Kaz getting top billing for less work.
