I love, and will dearly miss, Kaz Hirai if this means we'll be seeing less of him.
Since he's taken over this position, we've seen Sony do what it should do at E3: focus on games. He omitted 3D from this year's presentation, which I think was a very strong move on Sony's part.
Hopefully, we'll still see enough of Kaz.
