Take-Two Takes Financial Hit

Posted by Zonk on from the money-lost-to-bullies dept.

Gamespot reports that Take-Two Entertainment, publishers of titles like Civ IV, has reported much lower earnings than in the previous year in the same period. From the article: "There were several reasons behind the shortfall. Though Take-Two had three Xbox 360 launch titles--Amped 3, NBA 2K6, and NHL 2K6--and a solid PC hit in the form of Civilization IV, the company admits it had a lackluster Christmas in 2005. 'Clearly, the holiday season did not live up to anyone's expectations,' said Paul Eibeler, Take-Two's president and CEO, in a statement."

    Obviously you haven't really read the title of the company. It's "Take TWO", they don't make originals.
