That sucks to hear that.  Hopefully Hirai will do a good job in his stead.

Eh.  Best of luck to him, but I don't think he'll need it.  And really, I don't think much could hurt the Playstation name any more than the PS3 has hurt it at this point.

You know what would be funny?

If M$ decided to "bribe" him out of retirement (just for spite, to attack Sony)....heh.

He is probably retiring in disgrace, honestly.  The PS3 has been a pretty big failure thus far.
