Mr. Vice President Phil Harrison was feeling chatty it appears. In an interview with MTV he discusses the future of the PS3, Nintendo, and motion sensor controllers.

Concerning the PlayStation 3's launch, Harrison said, "2007 is the year of software, is how I'll answer that," He went on to discuss the future of gaming "The video-game business for the past 20 years was about shipping closed experiences," he said. The new trend will be "the start of the relationship with the consumer is when you launch the game … Next year you're going to see user-created experiences in a number of interesting ways on PlayStation 3."

When it comes to the competition Harrison said, "Nintendo should be congratulated" primarily for bringing in a lot of non-gamers with the DS. Without mentioning the Wii, he also acknowledged that 2006 is the year of the motion controller.

On the topic of PlayStation capabilities, Harrison said that it takes end-of-cycle games such as Gran Turismo 2 for the PSone and God of War II for the PS2 to fully explore a system's full potential. He believes that the current PS3 launch titles use "less than half" of the system's computational power, but even more interesting is his bold statement that "Nobody will ever use 100 percent of its capability."
