We're in a transition ordsprog

We're in a transition period, so a lot of dollars are being saved for new video game consoles. And there are more choices vying for consumer dollars, and more consumers holding on to their money in anticipation of new consoles. Although a lot of people are disappointed _ especially publishers whose sales aren't living up to expectations _ I wouldn't say this is doom or gloom. It's going to be an interesting number of months until everything settles down.

It goes without saying that the full impact of next generation consoles on the consumer market won't unfold until later this year when Sony and Nintendo's video game consoles hit U.S. retail shelves.

The introduction of the Xbox 360 was a defining moment for the industry in 2005. However, it goes without saying that the full impact of next-generation consoles on the consumer market won't unfold until later this year when Sony's and Nintendo's video-game consoles hit U.S. retail shelves.

PC technology moves faster than the consoles. Consoles have a three- to five-year life span. You can get new video cards every few months, so the PC will always be more powerful and it has better connections to the Internet.

However, it goes without saying that the full impact of next generation consoles on the consumer market won't unfold until later this year when Sony and Nintendo's video game consoles hit U.S. retail shelves. The real story for 2005 was the incredible expansion of portable gaming. The GBA continued to realize stellar sales, and the introduction of the DS and PSP to the market brought older gamers to the portable format.

Despite these achievements, we were disappointed with our earnings performance this quarter which was the result of weaker than expected market conditions in the U.S. and Europe due to the transition from current-generation consoles to the next generation of video game systems.

It looks like all stores are having clearance specials, summer sales. It's very competitive out there. It's a very competitive market, and we think retailers are vying for consumers' dollars as the economy is slow and people probably aren't spending as much. So retailers are giving consumers incentive to come in and traffic their stores.

We believe that industry sales have been quite weak since Take-Two's late October negative preannouncement, primarily due to consumer malaise and a shortage of Xbox 360 hardware... Given weak November NPD sales and Electronic Arts' and Activision's recent earnings warnings, we believe that Take-Two likely experienced weak sales during the holiday period, as consumers continue to shun current generation games while waiting for next generation consoles.

The Mini is small enough that people will consider adding it to their living room consoles. The transition of bringing the computer into the living room won't happen overnight, but this is a good first step.

This year's figures hold no surprises. Widespread use of illegal sites, made easier with the growth of broadband access in the major markets, is affecting an industry that is also having to compete with increased sales of other entertainment formats such as DVD films and new video game consoles,

With Unreal Engine 3, we designed it to fall in the sweet spot of next generation consoles. We've been really in tune with the next generation consoles this time around.
