January 11th, 2009 Posted in Adventure, Business

Robert Brent, chief financial officer for Eidos, had this to say: “We need to look at everything, as we develop the next game. Look at how Batman changed succesfully, from the rather sad character of the Michael Keaton era to the noir style of The Dark Knight.”

Full-year revenue for the company has been significantly lowered, ranging from 160 to 180 million pounds, rather than 180 to 200 million.
