$16 Billion. Yet we still get people concerned about MS supporting gamepass. MS would be willing to spend easily $10-20 Billion to become the Netflix of gaming over the next decade. They could afford to finance 200 $100 million games without a return if necessary but they’re already bringing in $200 million and rising a month in subs. MS have deep deep pockets.

I usually shut them right up with "Dude, I'm almost 50. I probably dated your Mom". They have no comeback from that.
