Several titles did well against direct competitors. SKATE, a new and highly rated IP from our Black Box studio, outperformed an entrenched competitor. Despite the fact that we launched on three fewer platforms, we realized a 55% revenue share in North America. On current generation systems, SKATE outsold Tony Hawk nearly 2 to 1.
So. There you have it from the horses mouth. EA Skate outsells Tony Hawk Proving Ground by 2 copies to 1.
It will be interesting to see what Mr Hawk comes back with next. I expect it to be a Skate rip-off with all the extra bits added that we all want.
Take it like a man Tony.
