Well, I heard Sony was expecting to start having an overall profit from the next fiscal year from the playstation brand. I think this means that they will gain everything they lost in the last four years by the next fiscal year.

Of course, I lost the source, so I don't have the proof. But it was one of the guys at SCE talking about move sales.

If what you read is correct, then that's not exactly great news.

Think about it. It means that PS3 sunk down everything PS, PS2 and PSP had ever done. Right down the drain. And it'll be next year till they're breaking even on all of it altogether.

On topic, I thought they'd been making profit since March. I'll go with the link that says June though.

I never said otherwise though. However, its great news for the Sony brand as a whole because lets not forget one thing here: PS3 was also used as a system to make blu-ray win. And win they did. At a huge cost though, which might have been recovered through other means. 

Not to mention that even xbox 360 has not yet started profiting overall.
