Apparently, we’re not as far, graphically, as we should be with our expensive gaming consoles. At least, that’s what Sony President Phil Harrison believes.

“I see nothing wrong with having non-interactive, full HD sequences as part of the game,” he said. “Thats all part of the production value and the experience that you get when you buy the game. I dont see that as a weakness at all.”

Good job justifying Blu-Ray there, Phil.

In an age where video game advertisement practices are questioned due to the overuse of “target” renders rather than actual, in-game content, the President of Sony goes on record admitting that he has no problem with FMVs.

Call me crazy, but last time I checked these consoles were well capable of rendering cinematics with the in-game engine. Since the engines are capable out high-def output, aren’t we to assume that the games don’t really need the videos? What do you think? Should cutscenes be rendered by the in-game engines or with high-def video?

Since I despise FMVs, you already know where I stand…
