[QUOTE=Badballer;45813631]Why would they even disclose this information?[/QUOTE]
Try to view it from a shareholders perspective.
They also hope that people will like them and not complain about their shitty business tactics.
I still find it hard to believe that we as an industry and society have gotten to a point, where you can pay money to [B]not[/B] play a game. We have developed a system in games where the grind is so artificial and crippling, that we have to pay money to literally skip ahead in 'progression' to not feel like we are wasting our time.

Well isn't this a huge Catch 22.
Release the information for the shareholders and all the commonfolk will see it as greedy scummy model if they hope to sell $1B worth of DLC, that probably will happen regardless.

It's just so odd to see DLC earnings announced on par with news of new investments/products. But then again I've never owned shares in a game company.

More like this. They don't give a damn over charging people for extras that should be in the game in the first place.
Good luck EA, you'll get nothing from me.

This is also DLC for ALL of their games. And honestly if you take every bit of DLC they sell for an entire year it might just about come out to the length of MGS Ground Zeroes.
I imagine this is what EA's CEO was like

Hey EA
Maybe go fuck yourself
Well I ain't gonna be a part of that, that's for sure
Ah didn't see the DLC part. That's a little bit of a crazy target surely
