Tha really tells you something... Ps3 is only 2 games per console behing 360 in its home territory when 360 games always sell better multiplat AND 360 has Halo 3... thats outstanding. Ps3 probablly makes that up WW... maybe even beats out the 360 considering I bet Japan heavily favors Ps3

That's 2 games per console sold AND 8.8 * 9 million consoles behind. that's roughly 100,000,000 less software unit sales. Assuming games sell at an average of $40, that's $4 Billion. Yes, that does really tell you something.

I think the additional year on the market for the 360 more than justifies the additional 2 units per console.
I don't think MS gets more than $30 per unit for a 1st party game. A large percentage of the software units sold are by third parties where MS will only get licensing royalties.. I think your 4 billion dollar number is a little bit high.

I meant $40 at retail, assuming lots of copies sold at $50-$60, and the rest selling at lower prices eventually averaging at $40... not $40 to MS per game. Just total revenue generated.
