Comment on Xbox One controller cost over $100M to developparent

Comments

It is a sign of a company with a lot of money that is not willing to take excessive risks.

Microsoft included a Kinect with every Xbox, despite the Kinect pushing the cost of the console to $100 over Sony. Risk aversion doesn't seem to fit the pattern here.

That depends - were they risk aware or did they assume Sony would produce another PS3-style effort?
