My beliefs on this one, which are to be taken with a HUGE grain of salt, as I base them mostly on gut feel -- which has been wrong before, is that it'll see 5 and some change short-term but will be in at least the mid-teens in 6 months. I look for them to branch out into distributing other kinds of software that don't offend as many people. However, I'm cautious with this one. A recent article I read that cited many GTIS titles as being too violent and socially unredeeming, could very well turn into a witch-hunt that would seriously hurt value. If they don't head this one off quickly (by getting lot of popular, yet non-violent titles) there's a small chance it all may blow up in their (our) faces. Negative things like this (childrens' desensitization to violence because of video games) is just the thing politicians live for, and could easily result in a lot of very visible chest-thumping from politicians trying to position themselves as saintly people. The fact that it's not an election year may spare us a bit, though. LOL I think GTIS is too smart to fall victim to that, though (hope so), so I remain bullish on their long-term prospects.
