Microsoft is expanding their business to the video game industry.
If it fails they will still have the feet to stand back up.

Sony is kinda like Microsoft just in a smaller scale.
We should just be happy that Sony hasn't given up on the
PlayStation brand and is still striving to improve.

I can't imagine if Sony pulled away from the video game industry.
It will be the end of the world i guess xD

Microsoft has posted 2 consecutive quarterly losses, and with the Elite price drop, they are well on their way to more losses.  The data does not support your statement.  Don't feel bad for Sony, they just sold 500k consoles in a week.  I think they will be just fine.

Why bring up the Microsoft when this is about Sony.

Because that is the nature of the Business Simulacrum. Look at the losses for both of these competitors. Sega is more profitable than Sony (just barely) and Microsoft is last by a very large distance.

Nintendo on the other hand boasts over 30billion in profit.

well at least sony assets are higher xD

I'm 100% certain PS3 Slim sales posted a profit. Why? Because of sales in PAL regions.

Well the world's ending on 12/21/12 ...... Interesting

Well a life of video games is.....

A LIFE WELL SPENT!

look guys economy aint that simple, u dont just win 5 dollars for every console sold or somethin like that. There are stuff Sony needed to control, the more sales slow down, the more they lose. They also have to save the playstation brand from diminishing, thats why they had to do what they did. Its not about losses anymore, its about the future of playstation.

Its a great move and i think it'll get profitable soon if sales surge

They certainly made a profit from me.
