Kinect's fate with the XB1 does not affect the 360s success and the money that was made from it. Xbox followed on with Kinect 2.0 while Sony followed on with Move 2.0. They did the exact same thing, only thing is Xbox bundled it at launch instead of separately.

Also I am little confused as to why you mention June 2013 onwards for subs.. that's the XB1 service. The 360 had Gold Live Memberships which was a $60 yearly service which opened Online Multiplayer. From my memory the 360 did not give away free games monthly so it didn't have to mend any royalties to 3rd parties from give-aways. XB1 added free monthly games not the 360 era. The Live Store would give royalties obviously from digital sales however that's a different feature.

PS3 did not have any profits from memberships for majority of the generation hence why the Multiplayer was free back than. Xbox made billions from Live Subs through-out the 7 year 360 lifecycle.

Move 2.0?

Move 2 isn't the only thing wrong with this post!

@Azzanation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Games_with_Gold_games Games with Gold started during the X360 Era and has given out 155 titles including Tekken Tag Tourny 2 and EDF2025 which were Sept 2019 games with gold for the X360.

As for the 7 year 360 lifespan

Release date
Lifespan 2005–2016
Discontinued
  • WW: April 20, 2016[6]

It's 11 years from Launch to Discontinuation and yeah like I said they're still doing monthly 2 games for that system unlike the PS3/Vita which no longer get PSN+ titles on a monthly basis now.

As for the last paragraph about "Xbox" [sic] making billions from subs while Sony made nothing from PSN... I mean, PSN+ started during the PS3 era and had a fee so, I'm confused by loads of your post if I'm honest, no idea where you get your numbers or ideas from. Fairly common theme throughout the post there.
