Sony Computer Entertainment UK's head of sales quit today, just five weeks before the PS3 is set to storm stories there, MCV is reporting.
Kevin Jowett took over as sales director in 1998 to oversee stock allocations for the PS2, PSP and, most recently, the PS3.
MCV is reporting that Jowett resigned to "pursue new opportunities outside of the games industry and has left the company immediately, due to confidentiality issues."
That can't be good for the PS3's launch in the UK. I'm not saying it means there are problems, I'm saying it means this is going to create problems for the launch. MCV reports that Jowett left in the middle of organizing pre-orders and in-store marketing campaigns.
