27% is not "wayy" down. It's just plain old down. 50%+ would be "wayy" down. 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

The company would make more money if all they did was port Pac-Man and live off of money from that (plus money for giving people the rights to use it in movies/TV shows and on shirts)



Top 3 favorite games: Super Mario Galaxy, The Sims 2 (PC), The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

That's weird. I guess some titles are costing too much in development? 



Around the Network

Galaki - more of like transitioning to the next gen. They're moving their IPs over to DS/PSP and Wii/ect from PS2 and the like.

Why would their income be down considering the fact they've been supporting next-gen since RR6 on X360?

I wonder: is 302,000 units of RR7 LTD, or just for the quarter?



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Wow , I dont know what people think ., but it seams that PSP software sales are stabilizing ... seriously ... the only company I had seen the reverse effect was EA ...
