A Sony Corp. game executive rebuffed concerns Wednesday that the PlayStation 3’s delayed launch would put it at a competitive disadvantage to the already available Xbox 360 game console.

In addition to demonstrating the powerful high-definition graphics capabilities of the upcoming PS3, [Phil Harrison, president of Sony Computer Entertainment America's Worldwide Studios] detailed the underlying strategy of the device as a networked machine.

The console will act as a media server for the home, Harrison said, allowing it to deliver content to other devices on a user’s home network, including the PlayStation Portable.
