I bet they don't have much money at all. We only give them $50 here and there for content packs, half of which goes back to the author. I can't imagine that the licensing money goes very far. I'd say they've taking in about
$21M over GG's lifetime, spread amongst staff, capital expenses, rent, subscriptions etc. it seems like a lot of money but it would all get eaten up in running costs.

You can bet MS get a lot of the revenue for that. Why would GG have it any better than any other dev co?

1.Do you use TGE?
Yup, it's what I started on, I haven't used it lately but i've been meaning to go through the GPGT book sooner or later.
2.a.Do you use TSE?
__2.b.If not, why?
Nope, currently costs too much for me, although with the final release and Torque X i'm considering it, just have to get $200 eventually.
3.Do you use TGB?
Yup, i've been using it very frequently making random projects here and there.
4.a.Do you use TLK?
__4.b.If not, why?
I don't have it, I thought about it but if I do get TSE I probably won't get it.

Here are my answers:
1. TGE - Yes: 1st Projected rounding second :)
2. TSE - Yes: We couldn't pass up the intro price and get a head start.
3. TGB - Yes: again -- We couldn't pass on price when it was EA and we have 2 projects where it was about to be silly what we were going to do to TGE :) -- TGB made it easier.
4. TLK - Yes: Looks good, especially with the water upgrade and lighting upgrades....good stuff!! TGE + TLK + Gamma + Water upgrades rivals TSE....for now ;)
Man....GG has a lot of our money :)
