If sony won, why aren't they touting it from the top of a mountain like they normally would? They would normally be stuffing it down investor's throats to try and recoup some of their company's value which has dwindled 82% the past decade.

Sony didn't 'brag' about it last year either when they not only outsold microsoft they also outshipped them as well.

Because Wii trumped them all.

You don't understand the significance they'd gain from this by claiming that the PS3 was the "best selling home console", again spinning the PR in a positive way that would put them in a good spotlight with the investors, after all. The company has been bleeding money, and have potentially missed out on about $400m profits due to the price cut of PS3, which could have brought their losses down from the abysmal 2bil reported.

They didn't claim it, since likely they didn't win jack shit. I respect this site and all, but there is a certain % inaccuracy, which makes this just too close too call, let alone extrapolation of quite a lot of hard-to-track regions, your pig headness on the matter in the last two threads I've read is quite interesting, are you the new Sony CEO by any chance?

Because funnily enough, even the hardcore of Sony fans have hidden their faces from sales threads due to the reasonably abysmal shipment number (considerably less than they've expected).
