AI is really the sea change battleground of future gaming. I suspect that, within the next decade, single-player games will be populated with such compelling AI characters that the lure of online connectivity (for gameplay purposes, at least) will be greatly reduced.

Phil is nearly always wrong. What people might finally realise with Phil is that being extremely good at standing in front of a crowd and presenting has very little in common with knowing what you're talking about. The credibility you may get from standing in front of one of the world's great electronics companies is kind of gone when it's just you and David Gardner standing in front of a business even Bruno Bonnell gave up on. No sooner is he out of the door than SCE is canning his projects. Did his 'largest studio operation in the world' ever do anything good other than Singstar? Bye Phil. Of course Phil is wrong. Phil is nearly always wrong.
