Forums - Sales Discussion - Take-Two Reports PS3 Biggest Revenue Generator

"Kotaku writes: Sales were up at Take-Two Interactive, thanks to sales of games like Grand Theft Auto IV and Midnight Club: Los Angeles, but the publisher saw losses also increase to the tune of $15 million.

The company pointed to two other titles, NBA 2K9 and Carnival Games as leaders for the quarter, laying out its fiscal 2009 game plan. That includes two batches of Grand Theft Auto IV downloadable episodes due by October 31, 2009, one of which has already been announced and dated. The company boasted that more than 3 million games in the Carnival Games series have been shipped.

Take-Two list the PlayStation 3 as its biggest revenue generator on the publishing side, with 35% of the quarterly take. That beats out the Xbox 360, which brought in 28% of its publishing dollars, and the Wii, at 11%.

For the entire fiscal year, Take-Two brought in $1.5375 billion in revenue, with $97.1 million in net revenue. That's much better than the company's 2007, when it raked in $981.8 million, resulting in a loss of over $138 million."

So PS3 makes them more revenue so they reward PS3 owners with exclusive DLC for the 360...

the decision, i mean pay off, for exclusive DLC was probably made ages ago! anyway you think the ps3 will be getting some sort of its own DLC?

Revenue means nothing if there is no profit to go with it. Who's to say if the PS3 games were profitable or not. It'd have been nice if T2 included that info with their financials. Then we'd have something to discuss!



Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.

@Darknight^^^it just shows that PS3 owners do infact buy lots of game,since the revenue come from people buying games



 

 

 

And probably the biggest loss generator as well
