the losing money thing is partly true because they lose money with every xbox they sell because it costs more money to make them then theyre selling them for but the make up for most of it in the games and the fact that its microsoft and it doesnt even matter if they lose a lil money since itll all be profite soone enough

they wont, they wouldve stopped a long time ago, they want to monopolize the gaming world to which is fine with me

They're also making a lot of money with xbox live now too. Also, it wouldn't matter if they were losing money, it's one of the richest companies out there, I mean, look at how much Bill Gates got out of that company

How much does xbox live cost a month? none of my friends know kinda weird

**_RaMmStEiN_** · February 11th, 03:57 PM

50 bucks a month, which isn't bad when you consider the fact that you're paying 30-50 dollars a month for broadband

**b_heald** · February 11th, 04:00 PM

microsoft will never make a penny on an x-box. it costs them a lil over 400 bucks to make one and they effectivly sell it for 100 (not including the 2 free games, an extra 100 dollar value). it was no made to make a profit, microsoft saidthis outright, it was made to keep sony from having a monoploy on the gaming industry (sony is thier biggest enemy)

your also wrong, that just how much it costs for the starter kit and a yr. of service but as soon as that yr. runs out you gotta start paying a monthly fee
