Forums - General - Who is Richer Sony or Microsoft

People I have been woundering, which company is richer, I do not mean who is richer just by their gaming sections, but as a overall company. So who makes more profit per year, and which company is worth more all together.

 

Also if you can post a source for your answers that would be great, but you dont have to.
