This is actually pretty worrying for everyone as nobody wants to see MS having a monopoly, as they'll only end up taking advantage of it.

PS3 sales "dismal" in September:

Apparently, for 2 million sales, Sony have lost an incredible $844 million. That, in one fell swoop, is more loss than Sony made profit from the Playstation department is the past 12 years!!! All the profit from PS, PS2 and PSP completely gone!!!

Luckily, TV and camcorder sales have helped Sony stay in profit, but how long before they start to question the value of PS3?



I'm not having a go here as I have a PS3 and 360. I just copied this from another site. Not so good, sony NEED to get GTA4 as an exclusive, as that will sell consoles.
