nice read. This was my thoughts everytime i heard a silly microsoft fanboy say "but but microsoft has so much money!!!!"

Just like sony and nintendo, Microsoft has to make money to stay in the game and i think the 360 is going to do that... but if it doesnt i do not expect to see another xbox anytme soon.

That is a different thing then not spending money at all

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Like any business they need to make money. Paying 50 million for DLC not so smart, price cuts right before Christmas that may have been a wise move we will see in January



PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

The OP didn't say they weren't going to spend any money, just that Microsofts gaming division doesn't have a limitless source of cash. Which seems to be the opinion of a few uninformed posters around here.
