Phil Harrison, executive vice president of Sony Europe says that there are a plethora of PS3 games in development to the tune of over 100 titles. Harrison, who made his remarks to The Guardian, said, "…the signs are good, and right now there are more than 100 Blu-ray movies available today in the US. More than 100 games are in development, and all the major third-party publishers have pledged their strategic support for the platform." He described the PS3 as, “in full swing, from a developer point of view.”
Harrison continued to be optimistic about the PS3,s progress by indicating that the crucial hardware needed by game developers is finally in place. "Developers now have final hardware in their hands, though there will be some upgrades to the operating system – there’s nothing unusual about that. The new controller is now in developers’ hands, so all the pieces of the puzzle are there."
Sony is moving at breakneck speed in order to meet the deadline for its PS3 launch. In addition, the rumors of disenchanted developers complaining of lack of hardware support for making their games seems to finally be at rest. One of the biggest questions confronting both game developers and Sony is this-will there be enough time to pull everything off?
