So if I've calculated correctly, they made a total of $97 million profit for the fiscal year. That's pretty pathetic in a year when GTAIV is released. How this company is going to make any money at all in 2009 is a mystery to me. |
It's pathetic, but then Take-Two has been infamous as money losing publisher for years despite it's high-profile franchises, hasn't it?
Actually if u assume GTA4 shipped rufly 10 million copies in Fiscal 2008, and let's say each copy made $10 net profit, the profit from GTA4 rufly equals those $97 million. That means that the rest of Take-Two at least didn't lose money, like they did in the past.

I believe they get closer to 30 dollars (but not fully that much).

I believe that's a myth. Anyway, with $10 per copy I was exluding the cost of making and marketing the game.
GTA4 calculation rufly:
total revenue: 10 million copies x $20 = $200 million
- cost of development & marketing = $100 million
---------------------------------------------------
= total profit = $100 million (which rufly equals $97 million total profit of Take-Two) = $10 profit per sold copy of GTA4

I noticed you always spell roughly like that, "rufly."
Why do you do that, Mr. Pug?
