minus-squarelustrum@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·edit-22 years agoYeah the maths starts to add up. (There are some assumptions below, but you get the jist). The Xbox One had a software attach rate of 7 gamers per console[1] sold or on average that’s 1 game per year per user for the life of the console. In the Xbox One generation over 8 years they sold 0.875 games per user per year. Assume £50 a game. That’s £43 per xbox console owner per year. Per gamepass subscriber they’re currently recieving £90+ in subscriptions per year. https://vgsales.fandom.com/wiki/Software_tie_ratio ↩︎
