Microsoft had heard from publishers that Sony struck different loyalty rates with different publishers. Microsoft wanted to create a level playing field where all publishers paid the same royalty fee, but this rubbed some Japanese the wrong way. “They thought we'd buy their loyalty,” Bachus says." That's what you got from this statement? o_0
Either way they most likely did end up buying loyalty for the 360 which I'm sure is a pretty significant reason as to why it did so well compared to the Xbox. |
It's obvious microsoft had to buy it's way into this gen, it's the only reason why they are here right now
They had to buy gta away from sony, they had to buy japanese support, and most likely more.
it's a smart move though.
