In my opinion I think Sony should just buy Take-Two. Then they would also get the Elder Scrolls games. Anyways how did Take-Two lose so much money?

 Bad games with to high budgett. Latly it is more or less only Rockstar that have shown some serious profit.

@Topic 

I don't now about this:

I think it could save T-2 and give them enough money to reconstuct the rest of their buisness but it sound strange. The GTA4 deal with Microsoft shows that T-2 have the power to sell exclusive games from Rockstar and get them funded by the company of choice.

NOTE this is a question or speculation I don't want to flame!

Can it be that we actualy is reading to much into this? Is it simply so that Sony is paying rockstar for making a game for them, it will most possible be great even if it isn't a "GTA" so why not? That could be a way for T-2 to fund Rockstar (and they need a big budgett) meanwhile the get their finances going in the right direction.

Of course T-2 would get a lot for Rockstar, Micsrosoft wouldn't let Sony get it to cheap meaning that a full blown bidding could be happening behind the curtains.

You don't need to be so angry, I think rasone77 just meant that you can't sell 15 million GTA on a 4 million userbase.


Yes I understand, but GTA moves hardware FAST on its own. You have GTA 4 exclusive on any console hardware jumps fast. We can see GTA 4 force a 15 million install base to develop rapidly.
