Tony Hawks really has flunked. Looks like EA pulled a fast one, and managed to steal a lot of the marketshare from under Activisions nose. Sneaky!
Conan hasn't done great either, but no idea about the expectations for the title.
Madden sales are interesting:
- on the 360 alone, sales are up around 20% YoY
- last year, the XBOX sold 500k plus - most of those sales have been lost
- at this point last year, the PS2 had 2m (+) sales. Sales are down more than 50%.
Basically - the huge increase of install base for the 360, has barely altered the sell-through of Madden on the platform - and hasn't been enough to offset losses on other platforms.
