So the game's already made a profit, the company's already happy with its sales, it's getting great reviews, and the sales are basically the same every week, and analysts and Joystiq are still bitching and moaning?

This game's fun as hell, especially with the level editor.

 

 Where exactly did you get that the game already made a profit ?

EA CEO might have said it met expectations, he sure didn't say it made a profit....

Are you trying to suggest that a publisher expects their games to flop financially?

 

I didn't say that but it looks more to me that they are expecting to make profit on the continued sales ( it's not like the game is no longer selling anymore). Nowhere did he mention that development and marketing costs have been recouped so far...

The game sold 210k units so far, it's not hard to see it will at least sell 500k and EA see that too...
