Though note that in the previous quarter, PS3 beat the XBox 138 to 128 million in revenue. Again, XBox required no such GAAP/non GAAP adjustments.
To explain - in GAAP terms, they are generally required to recognize the revenue from "Change in Deferred Net Revenue (Packaged Goods & Digital Content)".
That is, EA is recognizing revenue, that in the past, they were "spreading out" for a longer period of time, from my understanding.
QUESTIONS:
Are there "ONLINE CONTENTS" in PS3 EA games, that are not available in X360 games?
eg. UEFA, Army of Two, Burnout, etc.?
My actual opinion - is that EA were shipping out goods, that:
(a) were not paid yet - that is, until a longer than normal period of time
(b) getting some revenue that is spread out over time, rather than just one time
It seems strange that only PS3, PS2 and Wii have it, but not XBox.
