bumidian,

IMO Pooper is attacking you with weak arguments. Ignore him, if he he won't stop.

Of course it is perfectly fine to make the assumptions you do, if you're gonna speculate weather or not the X360 is profitable or not.

Just try to structure your posts so that they're easier to follow (not just the numbers, but also be clear when you are making an assumption).

 

 If my arguement is weak why'd the other thread get locked for being a joke?

 

 I don't know. I missed that thread. Maybe he crossed the line when speculation becomes propaganda?

Assumptions in itself is not wrong, if you just declare clearly that you're making assumptions as a basis for a theory.

 

 Well basically he assumed so much just like this thread it was a complete joke and got locked. It was the "sony loses 11billion on Ps3" thread

Basically he is reporting assumptions. And there are dumb asses out there that wont graps that idea and think he is actually stating facts.

 

 I read it now. Almost everyone that replied missed bumidian's main point, which goes rufly like this:

If we know Sony Entertainment division lost rufly $3.2 billion in the last 2 years, it means either that

  • PS3 lost Sony $3.2 billion plus a bunch of billions, or
  • the PS2 and PSP haven't been very profitable to Sony in the last couple of years, in contrast to what people believe.

bumidian got roasted and hanged because Sony-fans are very sensitive about this issue.

 

 I think more people questioned the credibility and accuracy of his assumptions.
