360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

Activision is the new EA confirmed

That said, I'm glad 50 cent's game got cut. That was an embarrassment to all gamers



Every game except Brutal Legend has a publisher already



Edit - double post



Actually, EA recently stated that their sports franchises were their only reliable sources of income. It was their new IPs that hurt them this year (Mirror's Edge, Dead Space, etc.).

Activision/Blizzard is just doing what it takes to survive... same with EA.

Games publishers need to gang up on the retailers and make sure they cannot sell used games without paying royalties, amongst other things.

What's with the reposting of old news?

 

EDIT:  nm I just read the first line.  But it has been brought up here before.  Activision is sucking the great out of Blizzard.

Nope, no ghostbusters it seems, I was intrigued by the title too....

 

No, this article is *very* old.  Ghostbusters and even fiddy is fine.

And speaking of Ghostbusters, if you're in the Dallas area...
