NetEase has required content creators to sign a contract prohibiting them from saying anything bad about Marvel Rivals for playtest access.
Columbo mentioned "your numbers make no sense. profit is calculated by more than just income minus expenses. you know nothing about inflation, base costs, investments, tax rebates, etc..."
These are Microsoft's profit numbers. Are you suggesting Microsoft doesn't know how to report profit/loss on their own quarterly updates?
is sensationalizing and inflating percentages. A more proper idea of what is actually going on with Microsoft can be found here: http://www.reuters.com/arti...
Microsoft is definitely have a tough go of it (like most companies right now), but they aren't going anywhere. As for gamers, by the time the next XBOX is ready to come out, the economy should be looking a lot better. We can only hope.
"The E&D Division is composed of five main businesses: the Interactive Entertainment Business, home to the Xbox and Games for Windows gaming platforms; the Mobile Communications Business, which develops and markets Windows Mobile software, services and applications; the TV, Video and Music Business, comprised of Microsoft Mediaroom, Windows Media Center and Zune software and services; and the Specialized Devices and Applications Business, which includes the Hardware Group, Microsoft Surface, Office for Mac, Microsoft Auto and Windows Embedded software."
I have not read anywhere that the reduced profits are due to XBOX 360 performance. It seems like the E&D division has a lot of products other than XBOX that could have contributed to the numbers. Does anyone have proof that it was XBOX 360, and not any of these other products, that caused the reduction in profits? Is there any breakdown of the individual products in this division and how each contributed to revenue and profits? Otherwise, it seems you are jumping to conclusions about XBOX 360.
Interesting information and I have no problem with your submission.
I tend to agree with Columbo about the title (it IS tempting to use the most pertinant and/or interesting part of the articles as the title) but it's pretty much set in stone that you need to use the original title of the article. Again, I understand your reasoning, but the "rules are the rules" as they say.
The facts of MS's numbers are the facts. I don't understand why anyone would want to "downplay" them or "spin" them. Based on these numbers, the only logical conclusion is that MS is losing money on each Xbox 360 being sold now. Now, that might be one SKU over another, but we don't have that information.
Anyways, great read Dark...
Thanks.
your just lieng about the sales bc u jelous we have a 360!
