Keep in mind, around 40% of the profitability of the game comes from the fact that it is multi-platform. Run the numbers and see that (est) 42% of the sales come from the PS3 version, subtract a few percent for PS360 owners who bought the PS3 version instead, and you are looking at around 60% profit potential. Now, if MS estimates a large enough fanbase for the next GTA release to counterbalance this, then fair enough, but its not as cut and dry as comparing the profitability of the franchise to the bidding price.
I am a Gauntlet Adventurer.I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly.
