| DMeisterJ said: I wouldn't say it like that. It was very drastic and daring but desperate makes it seem like there aren't any other reasons to not purchase a PS3 because of price. I do think it helped but quality games could have done the same thing. Both of those mixed however, would be awesome. |
Projecting a $500m loss is daring. Burning through it in one quarter is frightening. Burning through twice as much in two quarters in an attempt to stay relevant is desperate.
If your boss told you he had run out of money to pay you by April, would you stick with him till December because you think the company holds great promise? What if he then proceded to ask you for a loan to keep the company afloat? What would it take for you to stay, and when would you just decide to simply cut your losses?
I know this is a bad analogy, but you can't really qualify this simply as a bold decision.
