Their revenue is high, but most publishers and developers spend nearly as much, if not more, than they bring in.

Now that I think about Sony has to be doing the same thing no way EA would drop online passes if only one console supported this feature.

Bleh, I wouldn't have bowed down to these publishers. I mean how hard can it be to create a sports game? Sony already has the best baseball game around

Yeah...none of thee console manufacturers are going to or can make their own football game that outsells Fifa. You can let go of that wishful thinking.

Fifa has an official license from...you guessed it, Fifa and has the official leagues, teams and players.
