That's great for the gaming section, not so much for everything else unless it's R&D

good to hear

now to put that money into making an rpg with the shadowrun license

Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6). This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

Microsoft as a whole is still profiting A LOT, and the gaming division is doing so well.....Xbox brand is doing awesome, so we will NO DOUBT see a 3rd Xbox.

PREDICTIONS:
(Predicted on 5/31/11) END of 2011 Sales - Xbox 360 = 62M; PS3 = 59M; Wii = 97M

That division includes more than the 360, like the Zune and Windows Mobile. So while the 360 made money, other products didn't and also money was spent on R&D.
