If I remember correctly, in MSFT's last quarter, Sales & Marketing (also R&D), increased quite dramatically.

That is the quarter starting Apr 1 to June 30, 2008.

Was there any big games released during that period? And or anybody notice MORE MARKETING than normal?

That could be a bit of evidence for "moneyhatting"...??

Though I'm not sure if the other divisions had more marketing than usual.

They've bundled a few 3rd party games down here recently. Mass Effect and Gears of War are the primary candidates as least. Could be money hatting for the sequels? Sell/Give away the prequel and sell more of the sequel? xD

 

 

Weren't those two published by MGS?
