Reasonable on 14 December 2008
| tuoyo said: I understand you love Sony but that is no reason to ignore reality. Sony themselves have said they are slashing tons of jobs. They have announced massively reduce profit forecasts. The financial reports for the gaming division since PS3 came out have been showing massive losses (despite profits from PSP and PS2 but these are now seeing lower sales). You can do all the calculations you want but those are revenue. Has nothing to do with profits. Anyone (apart from Sony fanboys) can see Sony is facing difficult times. Sony themselves know it. I don't think PS3 is going anywhere as suggested by a few in the media but to pretend things are rosy for Sony well that aint reality |
There's few global companies around that haven't cut costs, reduced staff and lowered forecasts. Sony are simply hurting more as their major business model is one that will be most hurt by the recession.
Current economic events are out of any single companies control, and Sony will respond as best they can. But when you're selling expensive electronic goods to a consumer based with cheaper options and less money you're not in the best position really.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
