Top-Selling Videogame Publishers Ranked

Thanks to GameSpot for their piece revealing the highest-grossing videogame publishers for 2003 so far, as taken from the U.S. Bancorp Piper Jaffray report previously excerpted on Slashdot. Although numbers "don't include the always-crucial Q4", the article notes: "Unsurprisingly, Electronic Arts is on top with nearly $600 million in sales - some 20 percent of the entire market", and Nintendo and Sony are second and third-placed, with Microsoft's game software sales currently down in fourteenth position. The report also pointed out that "...2003 has been a rough year for Activision so far. Its earnings dipped nearly $80 million compared to the same period in 2002. Take Two's numbers took a similar nose dive, sliding from $213 to $134 million."

    Please mod this up. Today's a very special day - we need to show the American electorate that Bush does not enjoy the support of decent British people.

    Assemble 2pm at Malet Street, Central London (nearest tubes: Goodge Street, Russell Square and Euston/Euston Sq). March to Trafalgar Square where a statue of George Bush will be pulled down. This event will continue until 7pm to allow for people coming from work.
    Route: Malet St - Russell Square - Southampton Row - Kingsway - Aldwych - Waterloo Bridge - York Road - Westminster Bridge - Parliament Square - Whitehall - Trafalgar Square.
    If there is only one STOP BU$H event that you can make - this is the one.

    If you can't make it... participate in the Virtual March - organised by OurWorldOurSay
