"Sony as a whole posted losses because of shitty economy and the Yen."

"no matter how you spin it losing money is bad."

Contradiction?

good xbox 360 number,

your right rpg. i also bet they entered the market to make money not lose it.

do you know what contradiction means? no where in my post did i say it was good for sony that they are losing money because of the yen

Correct if I am wrong, but I keep hearing "MS is making profit" but don't they first need to make up that 6B in debt before anything can be considered "profit" for the gaming division?

Touché. Let's say, then, that Microsoft are lowering their overall losses, while Sony's are only increasing. You did well calling me out on that one, I might add.

Japan has had a terrible economy for a long time yet Sony have done very little to combat the issues they now face until it became apparent how much trouble they were in this year. That is true bad business practice.

Like you said, losing money is losing money, no matter how you spin in. I honestly think you shouldn't have posted WHY Sony is losing money because it's irrevelant to your argument.

I only asked because I see that getting thrown around a lot and it isn't true at all.

the worlds been bad for a while not just sony. and it didnt become a terrible danger till december when the yen and sales plummited. it isnt just sony losing money. Circuit City went under. OFFice Depot, Linens n things, GM, Ford, (the other car manufacturer). all of these are american companies.
