“4%” EEDAR profit claim is bollocks, says EEDAR

By Patrick Garratt

An EEDAR rep has claimed that boss Geoffrey Zatkin was misquoted by Forbes last week in an article that said only 4 percent of games ever make a profit.

“This was just a big mistake,” EEDAR told Edge.

“What Geoffrey said was that only 20 percent of games that start production will end up with a finished product. And of that percentage of finished games, 20 percent will make a profit.”

Apparently everything else from the article’s correct, though.

Thank God for that.
