Because Sony and Microsoft sell the consoles at a loss for most of the product's life cycle.


this is true, it takes around 5 years to make a profit on a console

i do not believe that M$ would do this used game ban though. They make enough money on live to offset the losses in early console life cycle.

if sony ends up doing this, M$ will not and corner the market for good

I don't really get the used game ban...nowadays, companies are even putting online codes on your games so that if you sell it or buy a used one, you have to pay to play it online if the code is used.

EA gonna EA.

depends on what the developers do. They might forgo 720 development if MS doesn't jump on board.
