I think your all making this a lot more serious than it is. He obviously isn't going to say things you like every time hes asked a question, but don't discredit him completely for it. Also he has a lot more knowledge on the inner business aspect of the industry than anyone in this thread. You guys are on the outside looking in and your opinions aren't gospel anymore than his. Actually yours hold less weight in my opinion.

He's also not even saying or implying what most of the people in the thread are blindly assuming in their rush to bash him for it. Sadly the thread is still at the point where you're just a stupid idiot Xbox fanboy if you agree with what he is saying. Maybe by page 4 or 5 people will have settled down and can discuss things maturely.

Maybe you should re-read the OP, cause he is absolutely implying what most peole are assuming, he is implying that marketshare has NOTHING to do with the cost involved in making a deal with a third party, or what are you saying he meant with this?

"I know some people think it's somehow less expensive to sign third-party exclusives if you have a bigger market-share. I can tell you, it has nothing to do with market share."
