I'm afraid the bottom line for CA is summarized here:
"Week one sales of the title were nearly double those of both Rome: Total War and Medieval II: Total War, and is the first in the series’ to claim the Top 40 top spot. It also becomes the first PC exclusive title to reach the top since Football Manager 2008 in October 2007 – another Sega PC title."
[from a March report posted at IGN.com]
"If you make a hit game, you make good money out of it. But you only need to fail once or twice in a row and you're dead."
[a quote from Mike Simpson, the creative director for CA as quoted by the BBC in a March interview]
Obviously, with sales at the top of the charts, I don't expect anything will change anytime soon.....![]()
