And notice how most of people who comment in the financials thread won't post here or simply will ignore Sony's 2nd place...

No one is proud of McDonald's. Every french fry is coated with tears of shame. That's why they're so salty.

Adidas and Puma are from two brothers who had some beef with each other so that one started with Puma and the other went with Adidias

Strange, weren't there reports that Sony stores where a ghost brand in Japan a few months ago....

Ok...

Actually my comment was about this article: http://kotaku.com/5960411/how-sony-is-turning-into-a-ghost-in-japan-and-around-the-world

I was being sarcastic :P

Personally, Coca-Cola. Love it or hate it, it's the one company that now has a major cultural influence almost everywhere in the world.

And some come here to pretend Sony doesn't exist or try to say that if unemployeds were participating Sony would drop because of the layouts.

Hmm I thought Sony was dead in japan O.o well, is a sample of 1000 people, but still...

Oh, I remember that one! Kotaku isn't much credible anyway, I remember all the doom and gloom last year and the hate they spread against the Flappy Bird guy. A company won't be directly affected by a site like that, but the media attack (specially Kotaku) gave some serious problems for the dev that had to deal with the Vietnamese government. Journalism (not only in gaming) lacks integrity and quality in almost all cases.
