Dude, yeah, I sure hope they're as committed as they say... Ever since I saw Halo on the OG Xbox I was hooked. I felt like I was betraying Nintendo and Sega, but some titles like Jet Set Radio Future and Sega GT made their way to Xbox, with their Dreamcast style controller and memory packs, so it felt natural to go that route.
I don't even want to think about the money I spent in this ecosystem, but I'd bet its easily over $25k!
