I've been getting a few rumors but not those which should appear here - yet.More importantly there was a good article in today's FP entitled 'The tables turn on Sony'. The best quote is the following: "In fact, if you look at where the majority of the processing power is going, it's not going into spreadsheets or word-processing programs, it's going to games". There's no question Mr McDonald is bang on with his interpretation. In just 10 years, the once arcade-driven computer-gaming (PC Mac & console) market has morphed into the largest segment of the entertainment industry, worth over US$5.2 billion in 1998. That's as big as both the music and movie industries combined. (end of quote) And who is the biggest independent distributor in North America of reissued console games (i.e. like paperbacks in the book trade)? Our friend GTR.
