475k per month plus one dude's salary honestly sounds relatively cost effective for a game with 1 to 2 million daily players, but then again, I'm not a game dev.

And the daily player numbers will die down over time while Microsoft helps them cope with the overly successful launch.

I think this is just inaccurate though. There's no chance there's one IT guy for a team working on a multiplayer online game.
