Half a million dollars per week? What were they doing? Running their backend on gold-plated servers? No, seriously, how can you run so high with a digital distribution model? You are not even printing the stuff!!!

Doesn't really surprise me at all. They should take note that game apps haven't been sustainable on anything near that bloated an operation either. If they were trying to run it on a much more modest staff, say 20, they would be profitable.
