I'd say it will be cheaper, but not for the reasons that you've specified. The biggest factor would be the ability to use "tried and true" development environments now that some gaming platforms have switched to the x86/x64 architecture, probably the most compiler-optimised platform in existence now.


Of course. And this is why I see a small advantage for MS. It's because of Visual Studio, DirectX and their decades of knowledge building and providing development-tools.
