"LOS ANGELES - Spider-Man caught just about everyone in his web. The superhero's latest adventure, "Spider-Man 3," smashed box-office records with $148 million in its first three days, according to studio estimates Sunday."

"Since it began rolling out overseas on Tuesday, "Spider-Man 3" has taken in $227 million in foreign markets, bringing the film's worldwide total to $375 million. In just days, the movie has grossed $117 million more than its whopping $258 million production budget."

So much for Sony failing with Spiderman 3. This extra revenue can help ease the pressure off Sony's Gaming Division and allow for more exclusives and great games being released on the PS3. Sony isn't going anywhere.

Wrong forum for this but btw... Spiderman 3 didn't make any profit even at $375. They're still in the red. It will make a lot no doubt but just saying right now it's still in the red

Dude I work in the film industry.

There's something called P&A meaning prints and advertising which probably was atleast $150 worldwide if not $200 Million and then there is disitribution fees and etc...

My guess is they are in the red by.... maybe $150 - 200 Million I think

Unless all production studios use Macs, they do.

But knowing Microsoft, they don't want to just settle for that. 

Wow, thats about as much money as Halo 2 made in 1/3rd the time (the 148 million 3 day ticket). And Halo 2 didn't cost $100 million+ to make, so I don't see the point of this.pundog

they call pokemon, Pocket Monsters in japan?

wtf?

[QUOTE="greg_splicer"]ONE REASON: 4 million sales = 120.000.000$ profit on 360 alonehotdaisy18

[QUOTE="haris12121212"]X360 doesn,t sell that well in japan, nor does the games... Blu dragon sales were poor considering its a jrpg and the staff that was behind the game...DoctorBunny

Yea but couldnt the same be said about Devil May cry, I mean capcom is a Japanese company as well and also isnt devil may cry's main user base in Japan? and it went to the 360, I do hope your right dont get me wrong but it just makes me wonder

So they plan on selling one to ps3's entire userbase? right... 

[QUOTE="hotdaisy18"]

Here's a hint and I really do hope you can reason with it.

 

FFXIII. Release date. 2008. It's not coming out this year. At all. Period. Simple as that. If it were, yeah, I'd agree it's going multiplat. But that's not the case. By 2008 who knows what will happen. Wii passes 360 in sells? Then what? FFXIII to the Wii instead because it has a larger userbase AND Japan loves the Wii?

Reasons: Mega-hit system sellers are yet to release (Mass Effect, Halo 3, etc), it costs a heck of a lot less than the PS3 (lets face it price drop for PS3 is very late 08 at earliest and that's a stretch), and the PS3's lack of software (MGS4 and FFXIII will likely release summer 08 or later).

Even with its 2008 release I still see a great chance of it coming to the 360 for the above reasons.
