So I did some math on xboxlive numbers, and if 20M people subscribe to xboxlive and pay 9$ a month, they should be making 540M in a quarter. Of course lots of people just pay per year, not per month, but even so, subtracting the 165M profit this quarter gives us 380M to take away from my math.
WHat the hell does MS spend all its money on?!?!?

 

I guess a better question is, what the hell is dragging down EDD so much.

R&D

but think of this too. Just on the number of games (27M) they make nearly 450M. First party games make much more than that, and 360 revenue must be pretty high too. Probably around 25-50$ per Elite and maybe 5$ per arcade.

That's a lot of R&D money, especially considering that they didn't invent Natal, some other company did.

LOL...these results must be painful for you to watch.

Yeah...I just saw the shift to 6 July...day before my b-day!...WOOT!
