Former Sony Executive Says If PS4 Wasn’t Successful, It ‘Could’ve Been the End’ for PlayStation



Folks over at Video Games Chronicle have viewed The PlayStation Revolution documentary ahead of its release, and have shared an interesting tidbit that delves into the troubled launch of the PS3 and how it nearly spelled doom for PlayStation.
In the film, former Sony executive Shahid Kamal Ahmad revealed how Sony went through a difficult period with the PS3 and although it was considered ?an extraordinary piece of hardware,? the journey resulted in Sony transforming itself from a corporate perspective. According to Ahmad, this was a much-needed transformation that brought us the hugely successful PS4 and that Sony knew that if it didn?t get things right, ?it could?ve been the end? for PlayStation.
