Interview with Sony Employee Fired for Comparing PS3 to Xbox 360

February 6th 2006 | Games Consoles

We had a chance to chat with Josh Robinson, the former Sony 3D artist who shook up the gaming media with a largely negative review of PS3 development. Today’s interview confirms that Robinson lost his job at Sony as a result of the article. He discusses his dismissal from Sony, his new job, the genesis of the PS3 article, and the reactions to the story from around the web.

"We were all demoing games and systems and writing reviews on movies. We had just done a review on the Xbox 360 and Jason thought it would be a neat idea if we could have something up regarding the PS3. That’s where I came in! I wrote a few quick paragraphs and the rest is history."
