I don't know that they are losing money on PS right now...I tried to guess how many players there are in total and I would say that it's 5000 minimum, possibly as many as 10 or 15 000. At 5000 players they are raking in $65000 US a month.

Splids, thats probably about how much money it takes to continue to pay the Dev team, QA (which do nothing), Costumer Service, and maintain the servers. They are most likely only breaking even right now since they don't have the number of players they where hoping for.

Actually I wonder how much Sony is competing with itself especially with the MMORPG's(Everquest, Everquest Online, SWG, and soon Everquest 2).
I read the other day that Asherions Call 2 is consolidating servers. It would seem that they would directly competing with the original AC 1. |
