You see MS has their division which is mostly made up of Xbox 360 and Windows Phone 7. So when we see their numbers, its pretty clear that their mostly from Xbox. You dont have people saying " They only profited because Windows Phone was carrying the Xbox brand". Thats just not done lol. Sony on the other hand over the years has lumped the Playstation brand in with an increasing number of different products. The article I mentioned showed the division, a large division BUT included the Playstation brand nonetheless, posted hundreds of millions of losses. Sony refuses to divulge purely PS numbers and continues to lump them in this large division. I speculate that its cause they can mask their PS losses in a crowd of other products so it will be hard to tell whats really losing money. Oh and I saw your link. Says Sony PS brand brings in 13.4 billion every year....in revenue. I wanted to know net profit. Revenue is good and dandy but it could lead to a net loss for all we know. |
agreed on some points. hey they could be masking PS3 losses, but we'd be better of saying the PS3 makes very little profit v saying it's a huge hole.
you may not know me that well but i hate speculation, it's like betting your car can go 300 miles per hr. but the speedometer says your top speed is 298.
