According to sources at
GI.biz, the former head of Sony Worldwide Studios, Phil Harrison, will
leave the company at the end of the week to join Atari. A puzzling acquisition, if true. Atari hasn't been known for its
success in the industry, and many see it as a
sinking ship. Of course, the same could've been said about the PlayStation brand just a year ago. Since then, under Harrison's leadership, the company has seen a dramatic turnaround in sales and image.
Perhaps Harrison can work his magic on Atari as well? Stay tuned for the latest developments.
