Atari brand's Enter the Matrix videogame, produced by Lyon, France-based Infogrames, was snatched up by more than one million buyers during its first week in release in the U.S. and Europe, but analysts said that it was by no means clear whether the title will be profitable for the financially troubled company. According to the Wall Street Journal, the game, which employs characters and plot elements from The Matrix Reloaded, cost $20 million to make and $60 million for licensing rights and other expenses, making it one of the most expensive videogame titles ever. Nevertheless, the newspaper quoted analysts as noting that the game has not received the kind of enthusiastic response from reviewers that would ensure blockbuster sales.
