We have no idea what they paid, so we have no idea if they will get value for there money.

If they paid $10 yes

If they paid $1 Billion no

Well the rumor was they paid EA $50 mil for the one year exlusive to Titanfall on the Xbox 1 so maybe triple that would be my guess.

Presuming thats just for exclusivity and no profit share, id expect they would at least want a 500k boost in hardware sales, $150M would of paid for alot of advertising otherwise.

If EA turn this into an annualised title then MS are gonna feel a bit stupid paying for more than a 1 year exclusivity deal, as no one will care about Titanfall, when Titanfall 2 is out.
