Yeah, they were, as were the gaming industry at large, and probably MS too

MS should focus on internal development though. Especially as the PS3 userbase rises closer and closer, multi-plats may wind up doing better on the sony console *cough* DMC4 *cough* and not make it worth Microsoft's while. We've all conceded that FFXIII PS3 > FFXIII 360 in sales, so I'm not too sure what it helped MS to do that for.

 

A. It doesn't have to outsell Sony's version to make a profit.

B. It helped out MS' fans a lot, and in turn it helped MS.

C. It, undoubtedly, moved some 360's and decreased some PS3 sales in the US and Europe. I can name one friend of mine who already returned his PS3 he had just bought for MGS4 after this news.

 

If you're saying it might not have been worth the money they paid, then you might be right. If you're saying this move didn't help Microsoft at all, then you're wrong and no opinion can change that fact.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
