LOL, depends on how you define "win". Is selling the most consoles winning???
MS are over 9 billion $ in the hole. The made a tiny profit last year, but again they're taking losses because they dropped the price to $199 to save themselves the embarasement of being outsold weekly by PS3 which was $120 MORE EXPENSIVE.
It's pretty common to sell a console at a loss at launch, but to be selling at a loss 3.5 years later is not good at all.
The problem MS has is that they either have to lose the console war or lose a shitload of money. They simply cannot fight fair with Sony and Nintendo and expect to win. There's simply more talent in those companies.
