Still not 20 - by your numbers, it adds up to 7.5 to 9 times, just as I said above.

Even then, Sony is selling more than MS and the numbers are rising whereas MS\'s is on the decline.

Who cares who is richer? Thats not the point. The point is who makes higher quality games. And can you please quote someone that implied that Sony is "poorer"? Because I see just two, bold letters on your post BS[/size][/color].

Wasn\'t Sony on the top 20 of the worlds biggest companies while MS didn\'t even make the list?

Market caps according to quicken.com:

Microsoft is now worth $282 billion.  (dropped from $363 billion back in December 2001 when we last had this exact same argument --  an 80 billion dollar loss!  Ouch.)

Sony is now worth $49 billion (up from $42 billion back in December 2001)

So Microsoft\'s Market capital is about 5.6 times the amount of Sony\'s right now, compared to just a few months ago when Microsoft had 8.6 times the market capital.  Is it just the Xbox that is hurting them so much, or are their other factors in Microsoft losing so much money?

"Biggest" meaning what exactly?  Having the most employees?  Making the most profits?  If that\'s the case, then that is true.  But Microsoft still has more money.

another reason for people thinking Sony is > M$
is due to their present standing in the console market

PS2
PS2 35 million world wide
Already seen by some to have already won the console "war"
has out sold the compentition at an alarming rate

X Box
X box (Piss poor in Japan and Europe)
Lost 2 of its top brass as they "move on to better things"
Facing legal action with Navida over unpayed parts.
loseing "exclusives" like there is no tommorow.
lost a heck of a lot of money even before the European Panic attack sorry "price cut" 5 weeks after launch :rolleyes:

Don\'t mind him. Quddus has been taking qualudes and gin. ;) Two games? HA! I\'m a semi-serious gamer (I was mroe serious when I had more time for video games) and I can only keep the keepers and not the "rentals".

And hoo boy....now I gotta list my keepers

Ace Combat 4
MGS2
Dynasty Warriors 3
FFX
Shadow of Destiny
ICO
Onimusha
GTA3
GT3

**********

I\'d have more but I ain\'t got that much time to be able to play all the keepers out there.

Games I SHOULD HAVE :

VF4
Grandia II
Silent Hill 2
