EA is hemorrhaging money for some reason. Losing money Madden 1/4? For shame EA.

EA looks to have expensed out ALOT of work during the qtr that madden was launched, so that's not really a biggie, not like the ugly report 2K Games is going to report for this qtr, given the staggeringly poor performance of Bioshock on the ps3, and the excessive amount of resources they poured into that project, with expectations to deliver ROI, based on the nearly 2 million sold on the 360...WOW...that's goign to be ugly for them, and it's going to make EA look like a dream!

 

And it's beside the point that Bioshock's PS3 sales won't be on the report......

You got some PS3 hate dwelling within you.

It seems that their contracts and such outweighed the Madden gains.

2K Games is with Take-Two, not EA, and while I'm bias in favor of 360 in a major way, my point in mentioning it wasn't to just rib the ps3, as easy as it is, but instead to point out that project that proved to be a disaster for Take-Two.  Incase you didn't know, EA tried a coup d'etat of TakeTwo, and it fell thru, so in hindsight, that would have been more failed projects to futher sap EA's outlook for the future.
