true. People are underrating the Rare-games today. Perfect Dark Zero sold 1.44 million Viva Pinata sold 1.64 million Kameo sold 700k We will see what Banjo will do in the future. Avatars were also developed by Rare.
It is a good thing to have rare on your side. You never know what they are doing, but you are always looking forward to it.

So in 6 years they have sold 4 million Rare games. Assuming these are at $50 a piece*, and MS pockets each and every penny (they don't), they've made back $200 million, and are still $200 million in the hole. At this rate they would have been better off sticking the money into a checking account.
*Yes I know 360 games cost more, but since many of these sales would have been at discounted prices, this is still erring in MS's favor
