Your showing me data, but that data has no relevance at all to your argument. It doesn't pertain as to why EA stock fell

Your number is slightly off. Also, WoW has spent roughly $200 million in upkeep since it was released. $200 million is actually a fairly staggering number for video game production, in fact I believe it makes it the most expensive game to make in all of gaming history.

Torstatus.net has its use, but it shows neither subscriptions nor concurrent number of players. It shows server load, on a subjective, and probably non-linear scale (Light/Standard/Heavy/Very Heavy/Full). It is, however, good for measuring trends over time and comparing servers against each other, assuming the thresholds for the load categories are not changing.

No of course it doesnt, it shows nothing about the news in the market or why stock prices have gone up or down, silly me, why ow why would i think to find data on stock prices and markets on the stock market website and reuters.

Please forgive me what ever was i thinking of.

But that I think has more to do with this:

"US Game Sales Down 25% from Last Year."

How is the stock of other video game companies doing?

No worries. I'm not sure on the $200 million for upkeep, didn't find a real reliable source just a lot of semi-reliable sources all saying the same thing. So take that for what it is, unconfirmed numbers
