Ready. Set. And let your jaw drop…..now.

.
Phil Harrison, President of Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios (SCE WWS) will resign on February 29th. Harrison has been with Sony since 1992, when he joined Sony Electronics Publishing. That Sony branch later evolved into Sony Computer Entertainment Europe. Says Harrison:

“The past 15 years at Sony Computer Entertainment has been the defining journey of my life so far. I am grateful to all the PlayStation family for their incredible support, guidance and friendship. It has been a privilege to serve as part of the team and be inspired by them on a daily basis. I am so proud of everything PlayStation has achieved and will continue to support its future in every way I can.”

Toshiba Loves ~~Blu-ray~~… ~~PS3~~..Cell!

Toshiba is in the process of using the heart of the PS3, The cell processor that it created with Sony and IBM to power its next generation of TV’s. The Cell processor not only will allow the streaming of 6 HD sources on one screen at once, but will also replace the idea of having a costly upscaling DVD player. Oh Toshiba, we are so sorry. Side note, there is no irony or pun here for Toshiba at all.

PSP to Jack In

A quick update with John Koller, senior product manager for the PSP at Sony’s CES booth. When asked about the success of the recently launched PC version of the PlayStation Store that allows those without a PlayStation 3 to download games, trailers and more to their PSPs, Koller told us that while it was a bit too early for accurate numbers, the company is expecting big things from the service. “We have an opportunity to bring bite-size experiences to the system, ten minute, pick up and play content that can be downloaded from the store,” Koller told us, part of an effort to expand the PSP’s demographic.
