2.) when i buy a game, where does the $59.99 actually go? i.e., how much goes to the developer, the publisher, the retailer, and who else gets a piece.

 

 

When you purchase a game all the money goes to the retailer.   Part of it covers their cost of them purchasing the game.  part of it covers expenses of running a store.  and part of it(hopefully) is profit.

 

all of it goes to the retailer? even if i don't know the answer i doubt this is the case. you mean to say the developer and the publisher get nothing? that's impossible. so if sony is selling the game, they get nothing and the retailer gets all 59.99? that's impossible.

If a game is sold on the PS3 sony gets $10.00 same for MS
