I'm afraid you don't really understand what "inaccuracy" means.
Omission is a form of inaccuracy, and the fact that you (likely intentionally) ignored parts of the article that don't support your false narrative makes your comments factually inaccurate.
Repeating like a mantra, "but you wrote it!" doesn't make you any less wrong.
Ooops... I just noticed that I engaged with some console warrior's f...
What you wrote is a console warrior's distortion, pretending that these financial results are in any shape or form negative. They are not. Not even in the same galaxy.
What fanboys of any console say is also irrelevant in reviewing the health of a company.
The PlayStation business is wildly profitable, regardless of whether the PS5 hardware is sold at a profit or a loss. You gotta spend money to make money, and Sony makes a *LOT* of money.
Yes. Consoles are usually sold at a loss, especially with tariffs in place. That's normal.
And you forgot to read what comes after 13% year-on-year, which is one-time losses that offset profits. That's no big deal, and they're nearly irrelevant in reviewing the health of a business.
Both the sales and profit numbers are pretty damn stellar.
Tell me you aren't capable of interpreting financial results without telling me. 😂
Haha, finally someone who noticed that. I'm particularly proud of that image.
One of George Takei's most memorable performances.
"You are made of stupid" 😂
That is incorrect. It's for the first half of the year, not Q2.
Japanese companies (excluding Sony and a few others) usually report cumulatively (Q1, First half, First 9 months, full year) and not quarter by quarter.
@Christopher: The "Personal" in PC only indicates that it's a device designated for individual use.
Specifically, current-gen consoles aren't just PCs. They're x86 PCs, exactly as the PCs that run Windows, etcetera.
Again. If Microsoft woke up one morning and decided to let people install Windows on their Xbox Series X, they'd literally have a fully working PC.
The border between the two is made of artificial,...
@Christopher: they don't use "PC architecture elements." The architecture is literally identical to a PC, down to the smallest component.
The limitation on what you can install is irrelevant. It's an artificial software imposition that could be lifted literally at any time.
It doesn't change what they are, which is prepackaged PCs.
@Profchaos: nope. Your nes and your Gameboy have very different architectures compared to PCs, including PCs of their era. It simply isn't the case anymore.
@darthv72: the hardware isn't any more closed than any pre-made PC that you can buy right now and uses proprietary parts, or your average laptop, or a portable gaming PC like the ROG ally.
The software is closed, but that isn't much of a difference, just an arbitrary limitation that could be lifte...
@crazyCoconuts: The PS3 was not architecturally a PC.
Home consoles have been architecturally PCs since the PS4/Xbox One generation.
And no. I'm not talking about "similar" architecture. I'm talking about "identical" architecture.
They could literally rebrand the Xbox Series X and sell it as a PC. All they need is to change the OS. Inside the case, it IS a PC. Literally. Zero. Difference.
@Profchaos: they literally are prepackaged PCs running a custom OS. The difference in architecture is zero.
If Microsoft woke up one morning and let you install standard Windows on the Xbox series X and AMD provided the drivers, you'd have... a literal PC.
Every difference between a PC and a current-gen Xbox is an arbitrary software limitation that could be removed at will if Microsoft decided so.
I mean, this is literally fine.
I'm not sure how else you'd call a quarter that is essentially flat compared to a strong quarter?
You could call it strong, I suppose, but fine will do.
It's pretty hilarious that this whole "the next Xbox will be a PC" speculation has people so shocked. I wonder what they think the Xbox Series X and S are. 😂
You know what's more hilarious?
People like you who have zero visibility on the game and judge on pure hearsay and hot air, and believe that those who play it every day and have a lot of fun with it are the fools. 😂
When the Kickstarter was announced, obviously, I grew up with Wing Commander, so it's obvious that I'd keep an eye on this.
Last time I checked, a gaming website's job is to report on games, although many seem to have steered off course to focus only on drama, rumors, and silly crap like that. Star Citizen is a game, and a hell of a relevant one for those who care about sci-fi and Wing-Commander-style games. Hence, yes, I'll report about it anywhere I work....
He's been wrong more times than Jez, who is almost always right.
But it is hilarious to rank "leakers." Ya'll need a reality check and start reading actual news.
Imagine thinking that some random dude on Neogaf (seriously, who reads neogaf in 2025?) has better sources on Xbox than Jez. 😂
Literally only one of these games can be defined "realistic." Who writes this.
I am fully against generative AI, but someone who uses AI voices as their entire reason to negatively review an otherwise great game, shitting on the work of 300 human developers due to dogmatism, has no business reviewing games, or anything else. 🤔
Eurogamer has become irredeemable trash since the acquisition by IGN.
