So far in Q1 Fiscal 2009 they have made as follows.
http://investor.ea.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=88189&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=1180823&highlight=
PS3 - $139 Million
PC - $86 Million
360 - $81 Million
PS2 - $79 Million
Wii - $57 Million
PSP - $57 Million
DS - $21 Million
In Fiscal 2008 the revenue was as follows
PS2 - $601 Million
360 - $589 Million
PC - $430 Million
Wii - $302 Million
PS3 - $284 Million
DS - $230 Million
PSP - $185 Million
Main reason I posted this is because does the PC look dead from those numbers?
Honestly anyone who says PC is dead needs to wake up.
EA Fiscal Q1 2009 Revenue Report
I read this earlier today, and for the life of me I can't figure out how they have the PS3 going up so much and the 360 going down so much. I mean hasn't every EA game that has come out on both consoles done a lot better on the 360 and sold way more? Why would this all of the sudden change?

Probably because EA is tracking worldwide sales.

*sigh* .... Don't you just love fanboys in utter confusion.
What a difference a year makes. This time last year, sales of PS3 games accounted for only $13 million of EA's total net revenue. But this time this year? PS3 games account for $139 million in sales. Which is a 969% increase, and is miles ahead of 360 sales, which "only" made the company $81 million. Don't bother asking us how this happened, we have no idea. As for the other systems, the PC was the second-biggest earner at $86 million (perhaps contributing to EA Sport's about-face), with PS2 sales just behind the 360 at $79 million. If you're after the information path less trodden, click through for the full breakdown, which includes stuff like DS and mobile sales.

"Wow;I can't believe I am saying this, but I am actually interested in seeing what comes out of EA Sports on the PC when they have a full 2 years of dev time.

What the... so they earn most their money during the holidays?
Anyway, I'm impressed by how PS3 is selling their EA titles, there must be a lot of new PS3 owners this year.
