"the company had a mediocre quarter to begin fiscal 2013. Revenue in the first quarter fell by 8% and operating income fell by 26% year-over-year, while earnings per share fell from 68 cents in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 to 53 cents in fiscal 2013."

stating ones opinion is being butthurt? okay typical cow logic yet again.

Right heres a few things

1.This gen is starting to hit a saturation point, you cant expect everything to match the peak of the lifecycle we're in the tail end of this generation and its over in under a week aswell strangely is it not? revenue will drop for the time being until the next console releases.

2.MS are probably going to see an increase in profit this quarter considering halo 4 just launched and made $300m in the first few days which is a good thing for them and actualy disproves the doomed theory.

3.In 99.9% of topics i've actually never seen you make a rational arguement, it always degenerates to either butthurt or the usual spam the exclusives that have become vapour ware (TLG and FFXIII-VS being cow's favourite choice of damage control).

gee i cant wait for another reply with why you so butthurt because you dont have the actual cognitive reasoning or balls to form a decent arguement.

I wish I was as doomed-to-fail as Microsoft. I'd love to make $20 billion in profit in a year.

This is really not the area a Sony fanboy should use to attack. Microsoft is still one of the most powerful companies in the world and Sony well not so much.

no, it ends when the very last untouched fully boxed console gets sold on ebay. thats how stupid this crap sounds.

It's common sense. One technology doesn't replaces another it just moves forward. Or are games like GOW2 lost in the generation limbo?? No it is a sixth generation game. No need to arbitrarily assign dates when common sense works.

MS had less profit because a lot of people were not buying pcs because they were waiting on Windows 8 machines. Oh, and this topic has a very poor premise when a lot of companies traditionally have mediocre quarters this time of year. The numbers for the 4th quarter will be much stronger for MS.

you are the one despararte to drag this generation on as long as possible. i'd wager you'd be saying something different if PS3 was leading the race and the PS4 was first out of the gate in a few days.

I always champion common sense over arbitrarily :)

Listen dumb, dumb. Sony is more than just music, movies and games. They have the entire Broadcast market in their pocket which is worth more than their gaming division.

ok look, there have been talks of the nextbox already running into hardware issues, now this (which means they will cut costs, instead of spending more to fix these issuess), its pretty much safe to assume that xbox will fail next gen

thats why the prototyping stage exists, is to find flaws and fix them.Those flaws will be out the product by the time it hits the market or that much of a low failure rate that its only an issue to people like yourself.

Should maybe learn a bit more about a product developement lifecycle and prototyping it might help you understand why your completely wrong...AGAIN.

Anyhow this arguement backfired spectacularly on your buddy PinnaclePEE.

Nah all the lems on the sales thread were truly butthurt. So much they had to lock it before they experienced seizures. Not even their usual circle jerk strategy was working for them.
