The winner for hardware revenue in December is.....Sony

[Parokki]

1: Why does everyone automaticly assume that the losses on the PS3 can't be compensated by profits on the PSP and PS2? Everyone immediatly states that Sony must lose hundreds on every PS3 sold although there have been many advances in producing the PS3 in a way more price effective way.

2: Edit: can we ban Parokki for insulting people with a different opinion and having the guts to even get them banned for it? I am not seriously trying to get him banned, just kicking him in the nuts. He should respect people with a different opinion and in all honesty, Ninty did get it's ass kicked by Sony in the last 2 generations. No reason to request a ban.

1. They're probably making quite a bit of the PS3 losses back with the PS2. Not sure about the PSP, but it's possible as well. Bringing this up is a complete straw man, because it's not what we were talking about.

The point here is how jandre is claiming Sony's high revenue means that they're doing well, and many members are pointing out how revenue doesn't matter, it's all about profit, and Sony's own financial reports are showing lots and lots of losses. The Playstation family as a whole is not profitable.

2. Opinions are just fine, as long as you present them as such and don't behave like a troll. Griffin has been clogging the boards with the most broken logic and blatant fanboyism I've ever witnessed, and being very impolite about it. It's absurd how contributing members like Rol get banned, but nothing gets done about this guy.
