## Global Star 

Global Star Software publishes value-priced entertainment software across all platforms. Cor Global Star franchises include the hit Outlaw sports series (under license from MTV);the Tycoon franchise, including School Tycoon , Airport Tycoon 3 and Mall Tycoon 2 ; Motocr oss Mania ; and Army Men . In addition to original content, Global Star manages the jewel case and value compilation business for all Take-T wo PC products. 

While the success of the Grand Theft Auto franchise is extremely rewarding, creating a blockbuster of this magnitude also affords Take-Two an invaluable base of knowledge and expertise. During fiscal 2003, Take-Two took significant steps to share and leverage internal resources and experiences to create a more integrated and seamless publishing operation.

attention to detail and ability to recognize what makes games compelling. 

Rockstar’s unique market position is com- plemented by Gathering’s focus on pub- lishing premium and mid-priced products on PC, console and handheld platforms. We firmly believe demand for our premi- um priced games such as Grand Theft Auto, Max Payne, Midnight Club, Manhunt, and Mafia will continue to grow as the installed base of video game plat- forms increases – creating more con- sumers for our products. 

Additionally, with gradual reductions in hardware pricing and the resulting increased penetration of video game plat- forms, there is a much greater opportuni- ty to attract a more diverse and, at times, price conscious gamer. Jack of All Games’ success in distributing budget- priced titles has proven that the value segment of the software market is a desir- able long-term business. Accordingly, our Global Star label is publishing games that combine value pricing with compelling game play and is distributing these titles exclusively through Jack of All Games,
