Take-Two doesn't expect a profitable 2009

With BioShock 2, Red Dead Redemption, and Max Payne all banished to the far off temporal land of 2010, Take-Two isn't expecting much in the way of profitability this year. The company stated as much during today's conference call.

However, the publisher repeatedly noted that 2010 has become a promised land of sorts, with the above major games and many "unannounced titles" slated for release next year.

Analyst Jesse Divnich of EEDAR, especially, thinks there are good things in store for Take-Two. He gave Joystiq his two cents.

"The news of BioShock 2 being delayed into fiscal 2010 has drastically changed my view on the Take-Two. I originally anticipated that Take-Two would outperform the industry in fiscal 2010. Now, I expect them to dominate fiscal 2010."

Roll with the punches, Take-Two. Never back down.
