PS3 to be a PC killa?
On All Games Interactive we talked about how Sony's Phil Harrison apparently told a German magazine that the PS3 would make PCs obsolete. You can see the story on GamePro.
Harrison's decree?
"The PlayStation 3 is a computer. We do not need the PC."
Before cutting loose with the expletives, keep in mind that Harrison's words were translated into English, so I'm hoping that the hyperbole is a result of a translation gaffe -- and NOT someone actually saying that Nov. 17 will be pour-out-a-little-liquor time for PCs.
I hope that's not the case. It's been very strange watching Sony turn into the Tony Montana of the gaming industry. You can't help but get this crazy-eyed, I'm-invincible feeling every time one of their top guys makes a statement. It's turning a lot of people off, which isn't good if you say your $600 system is going to make their $1,500 rig obsolete. Not what the people want.
