The 360 has lost a lot from rrod but i think its only like in 1.3 billion debt. can microsoft make that up this year? discuss!



Around the Network

Your question isnt clear.

In FY2010 MS will be around $1B in profit in the EDD division (Xbox 360) if not more.  Already is at $660M profit through the 1st 2 quarters. Previous 2 Fiscal Years EDD was profitable about $570 million.

If your asking will the whole Xbox 360 initiative from beginning then no.  That will take some more time EDD lost about $3B the 1st 2 years (1B of that was the money set aside to handle future RRoD repairs).

And of course MS is hugely profitable.



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.
