Ludicrous how can you in one post say that the games Sony releases get a big discount and a lot of sales is on bundles and on another post talk about the sales being frontloaded and not see how both contradicts your try to put their revenue down?
A 10M seller from Sony is likely selling about 6M on 1st month at full price and no more than 100k bundles (just look at the HW spikes) and even full life it probably would have a 45 or more average price sold (discounted bundles already) and on that since it is 1st party we would need to discount only the retailer part on the 50% retail sales versus digital. So on 10M sold that would be 5M on retail for 15 bucks or 150M out of the 450M made, so we would be looking at least 300M made by Sony (I would bet it is even more) besides DLC, MTX, etc.
