Yeah, most likely. It keeps money pumping into the industry, which is good, especially with the retail price of games not changing. Both Microsoft and Sony seem to roll a lot of their revenue back into advertising, which obviously has a positive effect for ALL games on a system. You convince people to buy a system for CoD or Madden then there is a good chance they'll buy other stuff, too. That's why it's called an ecosystem.

Those talking about "greed", well, yeah? A business that isn't greedy usually dies an early death. Greed allows for growth--the only thing to really complain about from a philosophical perspective is when a company puts that profit in the bank rather than using it for growth and improvement. The consumers talking about businesses being greedy are often greedy themselves. I remember when I used to have a suggestion box for my business; most of the suggestions would have been wonderful for my customers--at least until I had to declare bankruptcy and they had to find a new place to shop.
