(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); When your console is getting trashed by anyone who doesn't watch TV on their TV, when you have no idea how to win over the silent Japanese audience and when some people still think your system is an NSA Spybox incarnate, there's only one solution left: pay for good publicity.

Well, Microsoft might have to dole out free dental care for the Brits to win them over. There's also the option of handing out free guns, but that only works in America. They also have the option of handing out more welfare checks to Americans with Xbox logos on it (something similar seems to be working so far), but I don't think that will work out so well for the rest of the global gaming audience.

iGame Responsibly managed to get hold of an image of an e-mail being passed around to select Machinima partners to help promote the Xbox One and the Xbox One's games. Image You must login or register to view this content.


So how much is Microsoft offering? Three cool and breezy dollars for CPM, or $3 for every one thousand applicable impressions. For the average YouTuber that gains about 35,000 views per video that would roughly translate into $105 per video. As noted by iGR, even if the video(s) hit(s) 1.25 million views, that would only cost Microsoft $3,750. That's decent cash for YouTubers, but it's peanuts for Microsoft.

There's also a matter of dignity, respect and ethics that come into play... although, really, when money is on the line does anyone really care about those things?

I actually think this is a great idea, Who wouldn't take advantage of this? making money for just recording what you love to do. I know its hard to get views and shit but there will start to be a lot more youtuber's because of this. I think Sony should actually consider doing the same.

Well If the Youtuber's main source of income is YouTube (Partnership) then making this extra money from doing this easy offer will eventually add up to a good amount of money, however this may sway their 'Subscribers' in one mind thinking Xbox One is better than PS4 or the other way around.

Overall Good for easy money, also makes Microsoft desperate for customers.

This is just sad and pathetic of M$ to make their console look better because they already know the PS4 raped that 720p VCR.

Damn thats sad

YTers have been doing this for some time, given free copies of games or items to review.
Just this time around they are going straight to the point with money. Fine with this so long people say they are being given money to promote it.
Only seen a couple YTers do that, most viewers are hope are not stupid.
