Hmm seems good, But what no one is talking about, is how sony stated that by the end of the next fiscal Year (March 2014) the entire company has taken a loss of over $1.3+ Billion Dollars, and they will be cutting 5,000 employees from their company.

Axe I wonder how much they made in profits though. They could've spend 4 billion dollars manufacturing the products.
yeah true but still probably large amounts.

Kex Damn $4.2 billion.
How much has Microsoft made?
Microsoft sold around 3.3 million last time they announced how much they sold but they sell in 13 territory's, PS4 sells in 53 when they sell in the 40 other territory's, later this year Xbox will catch up or out sell PS4 if you do the math.

That is a great amount, however i wasn't expecting it to be that much. I'd like to see how much sales Microsoft has had since release. Both are great consoles however $4.2 billion is crazy.

LatiasSanctorum-CPWho doesn't deserve it? Working class people? Of course they deserve more money. Teachers deserve more money than they get for sure, considering they are teaching children who will someday do something good, or the majority of them will. What about the people who empty your bins and clean your streets? Do they not deserve more money? YES, they do. There are many, MANY wealthy people who do next to no work, yet have more money than they can spend. Although Sony's $4.2 billion was well deserved.IamRCAResort Oh my god that is a boat lode of money! how do people make this much money but the economy sucks D:
becuase over 80% goes to paying the high ups. very little goes to helping the middle and lower class. welcome to capitalism.
They don't deserve it for doing basic, mindless jobs. If one wants more money, risks must be taken and work must be done. That is the reason wealthy people are at the top of the "food chain".
What you don't understand is they take risk in order to have that kind of money. They often put large amounts of capital forward and if the risk pays of they make money.
So a teacher who might have taken a $300,000 loan to finish school isn't taking a risk?
