Its no different that what they reported. Sony predicated they will lose $6.4 Billion in april, they actually lost $5.5 when they reported in May, if you take out the non-cash charge, they lost $1.2 Billion.

"The biggest thing to come out of this report isn't that they have a huge deficit for the year, but a huge negative net worth -- to the tune of -72.2B yen (純資産)."

I think this just proves how ridiculous those people who always state ''Oh but SCE is the profitable bit there is no worries for playstation'' are.

I will have to try and find the chart of SCE profits and losses when they still reported them separately. It seems since the PS3 began there has possibly been losses every year except one.

Turkish says and I'm allowed to quote that: Uncharted 3 and God Of War 3 look better than Unreal Engine 4 games will or the tech demo does. Also the Naughty Dog PS3 ENGINE PLAYS better than the UE4 ENGINE.
