Sony PlayStation Operating Losses Double in Q2

You forgot to say "PlayStation 3"

Good point.

After the bull $$$ony is pulling, killing Lik-Sang and putting coders out of business, I don't know how you CAN like them.

The PS3 has potential to became less then the mess it is. But it will take a different company then $$$ony to do the job.

its because of games

a few good games are starting to appear like ratchet and clank 5
but its still missing something like, well idk ... MGS4

I saw the 80 gb PS3s going for $500 at Best Buy earlier today. This just shows you they aren't selling. It has absolutely no killer games for it like the Wii and the Xbox 360 do. The PS3 certainly will not be the console king this generation.

I always said the PS3 was corporate suicide. A $700 console system... I mean... that's just absurd. If they kept it down to $400 at it's initial release they would have made a killing, hell, I might have at least thought about buying one. They could have easily done this buy supporting HD DVD instead of Blu Ray. That would have kept both consumer console and software prices down and increased corporate profit. These latest price drops is essentially $ony on it's knees begging people to buy their latest bloated system, which they have further corrupted in my eyes by removing the EE chip, why would I want a system that isn't 100% backward compatible (especially one that is the size of a overweight bus). I just hope it makes them focus more on the PSP which is one of THE BEST handheld systems ever conceived (not to mention having an awesome community of programmers, hackers, and users).
I mean, let's be real here.... Misc homebrew, Dos apps, Space Quest, Shining Force, Final Fantasy 1 - 7, and FFVIICC all on the same MS... pure genius!
