This is the last of Sony
Their last console.
It's even prophesised in their own games.
Their last two large funded games.
And the second of the two there is already sketchy circumstances of its release.
They may both be vaporware.

the epitome of ignorance.
do you people think Sony starts at 0 and then loses money and get debts? their assets and market value alone are in the tens of billions. let's say their assets are $8 billion for the Playstation brand now they lose $2 billion this year, does that make them go under?
use your brains.
assets are no good if no-one wants them. Delta3074 will remember this one!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratners
Gerald Ratner, a previous CEO, made possibly the most famous gaffe in twentieth century British business when he explained to a major business conference that the reason why one of his products was so cheap was that it was "total crap". He then went on to unfavourably compare some of the company's earrings with a 99p prawn sandwich. His remarks were gleefully reported by the media, The company lost over 500 million pounds off its share price and consumers subsequently avoided the Ratner branded stores, nearly 300 of which were closed between January 1992 and May 1994 as the group went through a financial restructuring. Ratner resigned in November 1992 and the group changed its name to Signet Group plc in September 1993.
that was trippy, i laughed my face off when that happened, one guy makes one silly comment and it nearly bought down an entire corperation, dude should have left his honesty at home that day, peter molyneux made the same mistake when talking unfavourably about Fable as well, fortunately it didn't cost him as much,lol
