Yeah, because someone quits is the companies fault...

 

Damn that free will.

 

Its probably due to him slagging off the Sony mothership during GDC, blaming Sony Japan for the missed casual boat. He never knew when to shut up, about time for a change.

So what your saying is Phil was over his head in saying Nintendo was doing something right, whereas saying Sony was lagging?

In one hand you got the eventual PR spin, in the other the truth.

WOW! He never had a chance.

It's basic customer relations, do not insult your own products. You can praise a compeitor, you can take blame yourself, but you can't blame another part of the company for a failure.

 

Its really that simple.

 

 Plus his quick move to Atari seems like this was allready planned, he probably wasn't thinking with his Sony head at GDC.
