we are not talking about an exclusive or even a time exclusive.... it's a packed in game with pre order only, for european countries only, that will be launching the console in novembre.... that game will release on all platforms at the same time.... looking at the fact that devs get between 30 and 40 bucks on a 60 bucks game.... yeah 50 million deal would be expensive.... in comparaison the NFL deal is worth 80 million a year for an exclusive 5 year deal with one of the most followed sport league in the world....

anyway even though I will stand by those number.... I'm pretty sure MS worked out a deal globaly for all the exclusive content they will get and all accross multiple EA game IPs.... but a billion for fifas packed in certainly not... they'd be better off profit wise selling half as much in europe launch window than take a bill that huge


If you read what i wrote earlier...you can easily see that I had just received word that it was just preorders and my expection of payment was then changed to be  way lower. I am cutting down this quote tree before we both get into trouble. 

even if it was packed in with every european console sold during the launch window.... to justify a 1billion investment... hte bundle should sell over 25million units..... I didn't know you expected the XB1 to be that successful at launch :D

yeap didn't realize about the tree :D
