RDR Ships 8 Million Units, Take-Two In The Green
TreeFitty 4877 Days Ago 1879 ViewsTake-Two Interactive, which owns Rockstar Games, has posted their Results for the Three and Twelve Months Ended October 31, 2010. We'll cut through all the $$$ and wordsy stuff and get to the point. Basically Take-Two is making about $700 million more than a year ago (always a good thing) and they hope to keep bringing us top-of-the-line games. Red Dead Redemption was of course a good mention of things this past year.

... We have achieved our goal of profitability in a year without a new release of Grand Theft Auto.

(Strauss Zelnick, Chairman of Take-Two)
... We plan to build on the talents of our world-class creative team to deliver an increasingly diverse portfolio of high-quality titles. We will also pursue opportunities to enter newer areas of the interactive entertainment business, such as digitally delivered content and the expanding Asian and Latin American markets. ...
