They didn’t mention GamePass income.

There are people out there who basically only play Call of Duty. They’d be paying $360 a year for it.

Don't forget how much we pay for DLC. Those Blackcell Battle Passes and Beavis & Butthead skins aren't included with GamePass.

I don’t play it so I wasn’t even thinking of that. Good point!

No they didn't.

That's if you're naive/childish/innocent enough to assume that everyone playing this on game pass would've bought it if game pass wasn't an option.

Same backwards logic to convince useful idiots that each pirated copy is a lost sale.

Not everyone is an innocent child with disneyvision who believes corporations and their employees are there friends.
