Former head of Xbox games, Ed Fries, has
ended a 10 year relationship with Microsoft to enter the arms of its arch (game console) nemesis, Sony, as the
Executive Producer of SOE's Seattle office. Fries worked closely on the development of Xbox Live and has other
experience with MMOGs. Sony is obviously trying to beef up its competition for the next-gen, which will likely be
fought and won on the online battlefield. Rest assured, Microsoft is watching closely, just in case Fries
accidentally breaches a clause in his old contract.
