- louhike 12y agoI think you misunderstand the organization of Sony. Sony Pictures has nothing to do with video games, being the hardware or the games themselves. It is just an american subsidiary producing movies.
- EpicEng 12y agoThat's a pretty specific claim. Do you have some sort of citation or insider information to support it, or are you just making assumptions?
- throwawayaway 12y agoPS: the majority of the income comes from the games, because developers must pay Sony to publish a game on their platform. Sony also develop and sells their own games and services. Sony Pictures: part of the same org. i am just making assumptions that because content is where the money is, they call the shots. this is my peeve with the entertainment aspect of sony: http://www.scribd.com/doc/22131876/Underground-Resistance-vs-Sony-BMG-tobias-c-van-Veen http://www.scribd.com/doc/22131876/Underground-Resistance-vs... i think they make great hardware, but boy do they know how to alienate people.
