Speaking to the LA Times , SCEA Senior VP of Marketing Peter Dille said the new marketing push for the PS3 is all about positioning it as the ultimate all-in-one solution.
“We have been a game company for years and we would never walk away from that, but research confirmed there is a larger proposition under our nose,” [said Dille]. “We wanted to reposition as a total entertainment solution. We felt like we can really own entertainment.”
