Sony is definitely losing money on many ps3 games(if not most of them) cause only few of them sold really well, but they are still making profit on psp/ps2 games and consoles.
most MS profit goes from Xbox Live and Marketplace, Microsoft lost some money on games like Ninja Blade, Too Human and Project Sylpheed cause those are the only games that flopped on 360 that MS released.

Games make a profit at lower sales than you think

Did you know that only 20% of all games on the market make a profit?

That percentage is pretty random

And the industry as a whole must surely be making a profit.

I'll believe Ninja Blade didn't make a profit. Too human might have broke even.

And Sony isn't producing that big bombs

It's true: http://www.gamedaily.com/articles/news/only-four-percent-of-video-games-make-a-profit-ndash-eedar-/?biz=1

The industry is very 'hit-driven'.
