Video games sell like crazy. Maybe EA just makes shitty games or have such high operating costs that they can't make a good profit.
Blizzard alone makes a billion a year off of only 1 game.. World of Warcraft.
But it costs tons of money to actually make a decent game.

Apparently not, that's what they're saying. Their industry is taking a massive hit and becoming outdated (or already is), and is being replaced by other forms of entertainment, such as social networking sites like FaceCrap and online
free games.. (analogous to free porn). We used to think of porn as "recession proof" too. As it turns out, there is no such thing as "recession proof".
I thought it was an interesting article because it parallels everything we've been saying here about the pr0n industry. Adapt or die. And some of them are saying, adaptation may not be possible.
