Although Sony might be bigger than MS, I wouldn't be surprised if MS bought SCEA (Not Sony, just SCEA).......right before the NEXT gen of consoles.

Right now, Microsoft is measuring profit in billions, Sony in tens of millions (both US dollars).---All due to PS3 dragging the rest of Sony's profits way down. Microsoft wants "in" the Japanese game market. They can't see to get in by themselves. Wouldn't surprise me at all for them to try to "buy in" to that market. Buying SCEA would go a long way......

if one movie can make or break a company there would be a TON more independent films being made with investment capital flowing like water....

my advice; graduate high school first then try to understand stuff...

Tony_aaaa


i highly doubt it because SCEA is a major division of SCEI which is a division of Sony so its impossible.
while is agree Sony is bigger the MS, Ms has a higher net income than sony and will or already overtook sony you can look a forbes 500 list and sony makes hardware which always has a cost while ms makes mostly software where there is little to no cost associated with it

how is everyone missing this, "ms only has an OS that no one cares about." I read the first line, ok, then i got to the second and stopped right when I saw this. No one cares about Window? What rock? No wait even under a rock you would know that MS OS is the biggest, so at the bottom of what ocean are you living in? Thats great your a sony fanboy and all, but even you can't believe that linux or a mac is bigger or better than windows.

nintendofreak_2


A lot of companies are.

Nobody is richer than Bill Gates, but that's because MS is an oddity in that most companies that size are split up between thousands of people.

Citigroup is the biggest company in the world, with nearly 2 TRILLION dollars in assets, followed by GE. Microsoft comes in at number 55.

MS might be the most profitable one, I don't know about that. I'd need to check a lot of financial statements. By profitable I mean the one giving the most return on investment, not the most absolute profit.

Funny as you say that. You think The PS3 will Destroy the sony Brand .... Lets see Sony has Top of the Line Tv's, Dvd/Bluray Players, Home theatre Equipment, Laptops.. They make such movies as Spiderman Series (highest grossing) and Own Columbia Records. So No Fanboy just no.


Also Just had the Fastest and Best Selling Console of all time. Does that money just Dissapear????

Actually Coca Cola is the richest company in the world.MS is 2nd. Sony 26th. Do your effing research first.yuna707


Interesting. Under what criteria do you get these results?

Microsoft has more money laying around Sony has more invested in other things...GloverD


This would be partly right, but  for the most part, wrong  and completely insignificant. Sony has 88 billion dollars in assets against MS's 67. Of course, this only means Sony is much less efficient and has a much lower ROI than MS: There is a reason the market value of MS is over five times that of Sony.

Why is this? Because some of the assets of MS are intangible and invaluable (IP).

Because of the above, it's quite useless doing a simple sum of physical assets.

add a "2" in front of that 50 and you'll be more accurate.Hewkii


That would be closer to the market value, but no, it most definitely does not have 250 billion in cash. MS's assets are 67 billion, and that includes liquid assets (that is, money). So at most, it has 67 bill. Of course, it's much less.

Sony does have a significantly higher revenue than MS..... but they make far less profit since they produce physical things in a competitive maket. MS just has the Windows monopoly cash cow and overcharges people for it.

It's something like Sony - 70bil income 1.5 bil profit. MS 50bil income 12bil profit.

Pretty much... except MS has a lot of more things outside of Windows... and I'm not talking about our beloved 360 or the (ugh) Zune.


On another note... MS's market value is over four times it's value in assets... while Sony's market value is just over half it's value in assets. Which cannot mean anything good. It usually means investors aren't so keen on Sony's future.
