Activision has high hopes for PS3

After enjoying a record total of earnings of approximately US$ 822.8 million last quarter, the publisher of Tony Hawk Project 8, Guitar Hero II, and Marvel Ultimate Alliance pulls out an optimistic estimate for the current quarter. From a US$ 170 million earning estimate, Activision instead pushed it up to US$ 200 million.

Activision CFO Thomas Tippl announced that the decision for the positive outlook for their January to March 2007 quarter is greatly due to the “better visibility regarding the allocation of Playstation 3 hardware.” They are most probably referring to the PS3 launch in Europe and Australia, which was delayed mostly due to lack of unit stock.

The approximations are only based on preliminary analyses and is subject to change by the end of March. If all bodes well, then the PS3 would most likely score a significant comeback. Click the “Read” link below to view the whole coverage on Activision’s developments.
