I don't get how Sony's stock prices have anything to do with how badly the XBOne is doing vs the PS4 in this generation so far.
Other than bringing in a completely irrelevant talking point, that is. Fox-news style. |
It does matter when the Playstation division didn't profit last year and Sony is trimming the fat. The Xbox division proffited. Most of the shareholders don't care if theyre outselling the competition when they continue to lose money.

The Xbox division DIDN'T and HAS NEVER been profitable. Go re-read the annual earnings report if you doubt me.

The Xbox division is profitable, but the profit is peanuts for Microsoft. The money the gaming industry provides is chump change. Their only reason for even existing is to stop Sony from growing in multimedia.

I'm sorry, you were saying? It's pretty blatant that they are losing TONS of money on Xbox. I don't know where you got the impression that they were profitable, but it's wrong.
