Sims 2 you later, EA profits soar
The good and the bad news
EA have this morning announced that The Sims 2 as well Medal of Honour: Pacific Assault, will be delayed until the second or third quarter of this year, giving the developers more time to ensure the games meet the publisher's high quality standards. This puts them due for launch somewhere between July and December; potentially quite a wait from the previously touted Q1 dates.
On the slippage, EA CFO Warren Jenson commented to investors that "It's really about polishing the product. It's about the entertainment experience, critic meta-rating, and, ultimately, sales."
Whilst these delays to two of EA's most popular and best-selling series impacted the PLC's share price a little, there is not much that can shake the firm's ongoing financial excellence, as became apparent in the figures revealed this morning.
Income for the third quarter ending December was up a whopping 57% (on last year) to $392 million, whilst revenue also rose a healthy 20% to $1.475 billion.
"Our portfolio of franchise hits continues to grow," enthused Jenson. "In the last twelve months we had 27 platinum titles - each selling more than a million units. This compares to 22 platinum titles just a year ago."

I personally heard june 1, from my area. Is there any way to find out the true date?
Thank you for your time
When does the sims 2 REALLY come out. A lot of people say it comes out in March through May but some people say different! My friend is obsessed with the Sims and I promised her that I would get her the Sims 2, for her birthday. (her b-day is in May) But I am just not sure if that is an option anymore. I have been to 9 sights searching for the correct date. 6 sights said it came out in June, the rest said in March. I'm tired of waiting I need an exact date here!!! My friends b-day present can't wait forever. How do I know when it really comes out? Ps. For my friends b-day should I just get a reserve on the game and the cash to buy it? I'm not sure. Thanks for your time!
