This is good and bad for Sony and it's shareholders...

For the first time, it seems someone at Sony is being honest about the problems the company as a whole...and we've learned throughout business and normal day-to-day life, when you're honest...people have more respect and trust in you...

However, it should not be coming from the Playstation guru...could it be time for Sony to 'sever the ties' with Kutaragi and give some new lifeblood into the franchise? It worked for Nintendo when they finally were able to get rid of Yamauchi and replaced him with Iwata...Nintendo saw a boom in business (on the handheld side at least) since the replacement...

Could the same hold true for Sony?
