[QUOTE="FUBAR24"]dont you guys realize that even though MGS seems to be in a hole MS still has other divisions that are profiting so MGS will always have the money they need and won't shut down till clearly defeated. Think of it like this. You lose feeling in your legs after a car crash but the doctor says there is hope. You dont just go and cut your legs off because at the moment they are useless. You go to phyical therapy untill you regain control. Same process applies here. Sure MS just lost a billion dollars because of the whole extended warrenty but that certainly doesn't mean they wont recover. if what you say is true about the 360 having only another 3 years left in it then thats 3 years to make up their losses and while they might not break even this gen the closer they get the easier it will be next gen.GlassDominion
the original xbox never made a dime
the 360 has yet to make a dime, and it costed them billions for the warrentey.
13billion is alot to ask for in 3-5 years from the gaming division. especially when they are still loosing money, they are not even on their way to break even.
those being my points, rather than releasing another console and costing MS even more money...i think they might favor the platform just about everyone has, windows.
actually , the xbox 360 , in a report i read about a year ago has been making a profit since gears of war came out last year. then this year u have halo 3, how many 360s do u think they sold to people that want to play halo3? . look the reason sony has a better track record is this reason only, japanese, the are very eager to only adopt there own product, the export 1000 times more than they import, they like there own made stufff more., all of microsofts sales come from north america and europe. also..... out of all the friends u have that have a gaming machine, how many have a 360 vs a ps3? i honestly i know no one that has a ps3, all of em sold there ps2 to get a 360.
