B.Ob. Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Xbox 360 Costs $715 to Make! "That’s almost a $300 per Xbox 360 loss! Microsoft or not, these guys sure are taking one for the (Entertainment) team! Microsoft sure are trying to take on Sony, $300 per unit loss? That's quite a bit of money... everyone selling them Xbox's on Ebay should be giggling now." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 It was the same way with the Sexbox. I think even now, MS is still taking a loss on the console. They make their money on the games. Once the tech for the parts in the Sexbox360 come down and become cheaper to make, MS won't be taking such a hit. But like the Sexbox, I believe it'll be the same way.

PurSuiT Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 SONY and MS both take loses on thier consoles. That is just the way it goes. Sony to lose $1 billion on Playstation 3 "Merrill Lynch predicts that Sony will launch the PS3 with a US $399 price tag - around US $100 less than it costs to manufacture."
