Forums - Microsoft - Microsoft spending 400 MILLION DOLLARS for the NFL deal!

cmeese47 on 02 June 2013

I love football and fantasy sports but I do not see this as very useful to me. One because I have multiple leagues so it is much easier to track on my IPAD or Laptop. Also it is not like we are getting more games to watch on cable. This is not free NFL Sunday Ticket or something like that.

Actully that's a typo I ment to put "Idc" lol, but considering you have no rebuttle to any of my points you can take a gander at my sig.

- You just got that work lol

-Good day

The only "point" you have brought to me (if we even want to call it a point) is crying that MS is spending more on an NFL exclusive deal than they are on making games. So I merely asked you how much they are spending on games, since you're whining about it, I assumed you must have had some idea. Whether you want to reply with "Idk" or "Idc", neither give your "point" any more weight or substance.We've already seen them say they're putting at least 1 billion into games. Since you referenced your sig, can you ask that ghetto fabulous thug in it which number is bigger.. 1 billion or 400 million? Tell him I am on pins and needles awaiting his answer.


They also said this gen was going to sell a billion consoles. I think they just like the number 1 billion.

Why....? How about the NBA? Basketball is better.

What a waste. Maybe by the time the Xbox One is $200, by the last year of the contract maybe, this will yield a fraction of the expected results, if any.

It says : "worth 400 millions"... Which really different than spending.

That's at least 8 AAA games they could have invested into.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

These replies... Sad. You all need to read.


"The deal is worth $400 million over five years for the NFL, according to a person familiar with the agreement. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because financial details have not been made public."

So $400 million on a US only feature? Going by the $1 billion on the 15 first year exclusives we could have another 6 games instead of this.

$400 million over 5 years. I think they'll have another batch of exclusives year 2, maybe not 15 though!!
