That also doesn't include the fluffing up of numbers for tax purposes and all the other fun forms of Hollywood Accounting this country uses.
I truly doubt Sony lost 400m or whatever on this. On paper they might claim such, but in reality its likely a fraction of that and the money is just magically gone and used so it can't be used against them.
then another leak came out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAcmrjguf8M. more and more are coming out saying that they knew it was going to be a massive fucking failure... but no one internally could say anything bad about the game or suggest changes to fix the obvious problems, because everyone internal who didn't worship the game would be referred to HR, fired, and blacklisted for bigotry. it's the same shit where saying anything bad about obama/hillary/kamala, no matter how true, makes you racist/sexist/homophobic. this shit can survive inside blackrock captured companies when grifters in management are embezzling investor cash, but it can't make people buy the game/movie/whatever.
the "if you don't give us money, you're racist/sexist/homophobic" grift is dying.
