So much misinformation in that article it makes my eyes bleed.

Misinformation that makes PS look like it was responsible for those 4 years of Sony losses, which is not true.

Xb losing $2 billion per year turns out to be speculation not established fact.

PS4 selling for $100 less than Xb one being a margin squeeze on PS4. PS4 costs almost 20% less to get to market, so the margin squeeze isn't remotely close to being that $100 difference. Sony would profit from a $419 PS4. I don't know why Sony didn't go for $419 but the unit loss is not a big deal. And we know that PS4 over all lead to a substantial increase in operating profit in the game division in the Dec 2013 quarter. So PS4 is a profit star for Sony at least in the short term.

Heh, developers need the platforms as much as the platforms need developers, and if PS4 is king of the hill they won't need to pay developers a bean to get games on PS4.

Not at all impressed by Forbes here.
