Can't read the article at work, but is there any indication that this is tied into the PS3 'success'? It seems to me that the very recent announcment that PC gaming sales are up 48% or something like that is good timing.. ;)
You'd be surprised the little amount we actually make off 360 and PS3 software.
It was also an interesting little insight when our regional manager told me how we paid for our launch batch of PS3's (some 250,000)....... Just a little £10million loan :D
The PS3 was only launched a few weeks ago, yet the 44% rise is sales is stated as being from the 12 weeks in the lead up to April. So, is it really down to the success of the PS3? Not exactly, obviously the surge of sales on PS3 launch has helped somewhat, but it's not all down to the PS3.
To answer your question, it's the Chairman of GAME who has stated that the PS3 has helped with this increase in sales and will further help their profits over the next year, but he didn't exactly say that it's all down to the PS3.
