Doesn't stop the statement being true.
but you ca glean from it that the 360 also has a mediocre game library.... which it does (to many clearly)
There's seemingly nothing Sony can do to stop the downward spiral. Soon, I think Sony will stop advertising PS3 and just try to cut its losses. Maybe there will be a PS4 and maybe not (I hope there will be) but at this point, Sony has no viable path toward making the PS3 profitable.
it might be a big console but jeez... sinking ship ? Ok no more fat jokes about the playstation ! It looks awesome. It's big but awesome.

while i agree that sony is losing money on the ps3 microsoft can't be losing too much on low end xbox's cause they have been in black ink for like the past 3 quarters or so and soon to be a fourth with the big numbers their putting up |
Manufacturing costs for an XBox currently selling are around $230-$250. In Europe, the arcade sells for around $220 in shops. Now the question is what does MS want from the shops. Notice that the $220 include all sales taxes and store markups. Sales taxes vary from country to country and are anywhere from 7% to 17%. Store markups are anyone's guess and the values I know are not for console stuff. But I'd say MS does not give good conditions so as a rough guess I'd say 12%. So MS gets around$150-$160 for every arcade model. See how that isn't really a clever business model? Unless you can a) sell way-overpriced accessories (120G hardisks for $160) and b) sell a lot of expensive software....
this article proves at least one thing (if you still needed an evidence) : You can be the worst Jackass in the world and still work for CNN
i really cant believe that this article is from CNN.

Your assertion that MS is running CNN is ridiculous. Have you not noticed that MS already runs a cable news network, MSNBC?
