Take-Two's 2005

Posted by Zonk on from the more-eventful-than-my-year dept.

Next Generation is reflecting on the thoroughly eventful year that Take-Two Entertainment has had. From the article: "Possibly the biggest deal of the year was the pick-up of exclusive third-party publishing rights to MLB, pushing rivals like EA out to lesser licenses. The seven-year deal does not exclude hardware manufacturers from the market. Take-Two ended its association with ESPN following EA's deal with the broadcast label."

      "Why are we getting an annual report for a gaming company on slashdot?"

      Because it's interesrting to see how a company weathers dipshits like Jack Thompson.

      Maybe if you actually turned on that brain of yours instead of joining the loud mouthed Slashvert Gestapo, you might find that the world isn't nearly as wrong as you're imagining it is right now.

    Looks like another opportunity to bash EA some more. EA started all this license buyout BS. Nuff said. Next...
