A Conversation With Phil Harrison

The day after Sony's E3 Press Briefing, gameinformer got a chance to sit down with Phil Harrison, Sony's Computer Entertainment's President of World Wide Studios to catch up on a variety of topics. This candid conversation ranges from PSP 2.0, Home, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, exclusive games, Trophies, Unreal Engine, Killzone, and much more.

He mentioned Warhawk...='(

BRING IT BACK, Phil.
It's not fair that the guys at the office get to play and we don't.
*cries*

GI: Is Metal Gear Solid 4 still exclusive? Is that solidified and will never appear on the Xbox 360?

Harrison: Yes. We said it was an exclusive title.

This was a good interview though.

[Darkiewonder]

Sweet.

Awesome stuff. I take this was before Playstation Premiere.

[Lord Anubis]

it was.

based on the ecochrome demo I've been playing around is obvious they will allow for user generated levels. Although I'm a bit worry because I have not come up with anything really breath taking. Anywho, I'm certain they will have more features than the ones available in the demo.

[GodofPeace]

Can people plz stop making MGS4 rumors now?

[PS3Rebel]

but phil harrison is the DUDE! guy does his job great..keep up the good work phil

[SKUD]

"GI: But $500 is still quite a bit of money."
"Harrison: The PS3 is quite a bit of machine. There’s a lot you get for your money. People were camping out in the streets to buy a $500 phone. "

-LOL!. Good one phil.

[mrk01]

He's good at justifying the PS3
The things Phil knows behind Sony doors can turn the tides of the console war,
-Must be a great feeling knowing what they are.....best job ever indeed.

1.The basically said that the 60gig will last though the Holdiays
2.Echocrom this yera, with user created contenet
3.There will be annoucmenets abour the PS3 controller
4.MGS4 is exclusive

[mrk01]

Since the price of producing Blu-ray diode droped $100, and the removal of the emotion engine.
I suspect when the 80gig comes out it will be $499 + rumble controller and the 60gig will be $399.
It's the only logical move, I think they can make.
They're just denying it so the 60 gig's will sell.

[Adamalicious]

Good interview.

[Phantom_Lee]

White Knight Chronicles...now that sounds better than White Knight Story...

[WilliamRLBaker]

a few commentors still haven't gotten the news the 60 gig is no longer in production sony says 1 sku only.
allso i like his you cant build a system around one game though ninty has done it the past 2 gens, ms did it and sony did to the ps1 and 2 had a set amount of games all gamers played or owned.

why is game informer the only idiots that say that killlzone 2 doesnt look as good as the trailer, i know they must have some ugly wives and girlfriends, cause their judgement of looks is WAY off, the game has killed that old trailer, it doesnt look like the trailer, but it has beaten it, out of every site, they are the only ones that said that about the game, but i dont blame them, their comments are fueled by xbox fans and the skeptics comments, so they have to also say what will make the xbox fans and skeptics proud, so no i aint upset about their mistake
