Eidos suffers shrinkage due to poor performance
Commandos 3 and Kain blamed
The UK's Eidos Interactive have announced that their financial earning will fall somewhat short of market expectations due to the underperformance of a few titles. Both Legacy of Kain and Commandoes 3 didn't sell as well as was hoped. The company also blamed the weak dollar and poor US hardware sales for their missed projections. Pointing to some new titles coming up, including the next instalment of the successful Hitman series, Eidos expects to make its current expectations in the full year to June 30th.
With the massive drop in value of its Tomb Raider franchise after the disgrace that was The Angel of Darkness, the and the loss of Sports Interactive, creators of the ridiculously lucrative Championship Manager series, things could be said to be looking somewhat glum for the publisher which was sitting high this time last year.
