    I have been very busy this last year trying to make a name for myself within the industry."
    Well... I think he's managed that within the first month of 2006

    His name will be everywhere - perhaps he should have remained anonymous

    It must be "oops" indeed if a person working on the PS3 for months and states that the xbox360 is better.

    Oh to be a fly on the wall in Steve Balmers office (or is that padded cell?) when he hears about this

    Shouts to me of a guy who wants to be noticed - get himself a bit of notoriety.

    What we share with everyone is glum, and dark...

    If what he says is true, then just how much damage will this do to sales of the PS3 at launch? The console market can be devastating to any company that produces something the public don't buy in to - just look at the N64. That was a great console, but it was never exploited poperly. Ironic that Sony should have been their nemesis - perhaps that tables will now be turned...

    I hope this chap didn't sign a non-disclosure agreement, as I would imagine that well he's going to be in some hot water. If he's attempting to get a name in the gaming industry, I would imagine prospective employers may do well to avoid him.

    To an average joe, a comment like this could so Sony some real damage.

    Ahh more mud-slinging

    Possibly to deflect attention away from this ?

    I was under the slightly cynical impression that Microsoft deliberately stiffled the supply of the consoles to build-up a frenzy for them... I know of two people that are screwing they have not got theirs yet - one was told he would get his in April! They are after the pack containing the drive, etc, and not a plain console which are supposed to be easier to get hold of.

    well this is a bit dubious

    some dude, who works developing games for the ps3, says the xbox 360 is better. the same dude's name appears on the sony website as an artist, but no proof that its the same bloke or, for that matter, that he still works there or was ever involved in the ps3. he's simply saying that developing for the ps3 is tricky..
