First sign of the Apocalypse: Atari made profit in Q1

Considering Atari didn't have any huge reveals at E3, it appears its projections for AitD's success need to be maintained for the rest of the fiscal year. It's good to see Harrison et al. have the old girl up and walking again. Now let's see if they can avoid a relapse into fiscal floundering.

I'm sorry, but I just can't say no to DBZ.

They sold a lot of copies, but it only counts as 1.2 because the game is so broken.
LaughingTarget @ Aug 14th 2008 4:04PM
They were totally expecting to sell 3.1, this is 1.9 less than they wanted.

Alone in the dark is a terrible game. I think it might just be the worst game people ever make. Alone in the dark & Haze are neck and neck for worst games ever to be make. It seem the Captain Rainbow might have something to say about that conversation.

Shmil @ Aug 14th 2008 4:27PM

"Infrograms is entertainment..."
And now, apparently profitable.
Such a horrible song, but I guess they'll be singing to the bank.

Well, I liked Downstream Panic. So, bravo Atari!
Sora @ Aug 14th 2008 4:34PM
Dammit, you fixed the typo....
EMaster @ Aug 14th 2008 4:36PM
What what WHAT?!?!
Satan has to be the CFO as I find this hard to believe.
Tim The Enchanter @ Aug 15th 2008 9:38AM
No, it's some guy named Stan.
Moeez @ Aug 14th 2008 4:53PM
Whoah, Alone in the Dark sold THAT many! I'm definitely going to pick it up now, since it's 20 GBP here in UK. A lot of reviewers call it a game that could have been a masterpiece, so I'm fine with looking over the flaws to support Atari. Plus, DBZ! XD
Poisoned Al @ Aug 14th 2008 5:48PM
Wow, just imagine how much they would have if they made a good game!
MrSpaceCowboy @ Aug 14th 2008 7:25PM
I got Alone in the Dark free with my GTX280 Video Card.
There's one copy...
I've never been so upset over something I got for free.
(I still haven't bothered installing it)
Mr.Ironic @ Oct 13th 2008 5:56PM
If you haven't installed it...how do you know it's no good and be SO upset?
Besides the patch is out isn't it.

lmao caught me off guard w/ Atari, well done.
