BTW - In 1 quarter with AC2, U2, MW2, and FF13 sony has probablly made about 400,000,000 million in profit from those games.... 1.3 billion in lost revenue? For 4 quarters? 1.3/4 = 325,000,000.... Hm... I'm sure Sony had released more than 4 games in Q4 of '09...

I didn't know AC2, MW2 and FF13 was made by Sony.

They still get like 10 dollars per copy sold. Which... now that you mention it I think I clicked a 2 instead of a 1 on my calculator.

Probablly close to 15 million of those 4 games shipped. Times that by ten. 150 million dollars. U2 is first party probablly shipped like 3 million. We already took 10 dollars away from those three million. So they probablly get close to 25 dollar per copy still. 75 + 150 = $325 million. In one quarter for 4 games.
