And what did he see?

"Because of the cost of making the PlayStation 3 and because they sold it at a loss, Sony basically has pretty much no chance of making money on the PS3, because it's lost more money than they made during the entire peak of the PlayStation 2 - it's not going to happen again for Sony, [...] If they release the PlayStation 4 and have an even more expensive console and raise the cost of games by ten dollars, that would not be good, [...] So this is going to force them to make the PS3 last longer and they're kind of positioning to do that".

As far as I respect his former desing achievements (Earthworm Jim, MDK, Sacrifice - to name a few), I think Perry just dropped the (crystal) ball. (Actually he dropped it a long time ago, before Enter the Matrix.)

Maybe it's the PR, maybe he's just envious of some other outspoken colleagues, maybe he just wants some publicity for Acclaim. To say that he's a MS fanboy would be utter nonsense - we all know that he's a PC guy,  the champion of charge-free gaming and in-game advertising.

Now he's an expert in every territory but in game developing.
