From what the comments say, it's what the developers actually made after MS took it's cut, but pre-tax

Wow this looks like a real good investment. I'm gonna have to try XNA out again some time, hell better to have some kind of reward for your game right? ;D

I'm very happy to see they made such a good profit, I got a lot of fun out of the no 1 game.

It makes me think there might be something in the whole XNA development thing, but it remains to be seen whether I would make anything with XNA, I would have to read up on it first to see if I 'like' the framework.

I think, in that case, "a ballin framework" would have been more appropriate. That's really the adjective form.

Grrr fine, let me rephrase.

XNA owns.
