That nikka
Do you think those games have made more profit than gamepass?What.
It's crazy that on one hand Sony stans had all kinda reason and explanations as to why Sony is making more than Xbox off Call of duty and How Xbox now has the development cost to think about when getting 70 percent of sales now while Sony continues to get 30 percent for free.
Meanwhile when it comes to gamepass, where Microsoft has to worry about none of that SOMEHOW the cost of the service is close or over 5 billion a year.
Do y'all understand how much a billion really is?! Imagine your game cost 150 million to make, let's say you want to make that all back and then some, you'd need to sell at least what 5 million at full retail price for like 59 bucks.
Now imagine 1000 million dollars.... That's 1 billion brehs
it's crazy that y'all think Microsoft out here losing billions of dollars a year on games they don't even own or develop
Fully funded Triple A games are costing 120 to 300 plus million to make, and y'all think that MS giving out full triple A development money to have a game in their service for a year or 2.
