Post by: w00t220 on December 31, 2005, 03:00:29 PM
ive read and heard that microsoft is actually losing money on manufacturing the xbox 360.
i wonder why they are doing this, maybe cause they have too much money???
or perhaps they think that they will get a good cut from game sales??
or maybe they are just stupid lol

Of course they are losing money on the console production, like all companies. try buying all that sheet in there for £200.

The money is in the games and the reputation amongst gamers.

Having said that, currently Microsoft would be richer if it had never considered the xbox let alone the 360.

But hey they can afford it.
