There must be some mistake in those numbers, because the PS3 numbers just can't be right. Madden alone sold 336k units on PS3 in august according to NPD and NCAA Football 08 PS3 sold 156k units in july. Those numbers are part of the 3 months ending on september 2007 and added together account for around 500k units sold. And that doesn't include sales on any other title or of sales of the mentioned titles in the next months. Multiplying the 500k units by their full retail price would put it at 30M revenue already. So maybe Gamasutra or EA made some mistake, but 17M revenue for PS3 titles just can't be correct.

Uh.  That would be great... if you wanted to calculate retailer revenue.  EA doesn't sell Madden at full retail price, they sell it to the stores who then sell it for retail price. (if they can get that much.) Therefore their revenue will be lower then full retail price.

 Duh.
