I still don't see how though. And how come they still couldn't squeeze out a profit with this increase...

Umm, FIFA 08 and UEFA 2008 having high sales in Europe giving a large conversion - That's my guess, but still doesn't seem like nearly enough.

Would really like to know which EA games did so much better on Ps3 than on 360. It will be different in Q3 when Madden comes out though.

Wii is low, no wonder EA wants to target this platform.
