Take Square Enix for example. Over the past few years Square Enix has released some fantastic games for Gamers. In March, they reported physical sales of Sleeping Dogs at 1.75 million units, Hitman: Absolution at 3.6 million units and Tomb Raider at 3.4 million units. These are three fantastic games for Gamers, all with Metacritic scores of 80 or above. (Kotaku loved Tomb Raider, for example.) They all failed to meet sales expectations. Hard working, passionate game developers across different studios in Square Enix got laid off. Square Enix makes six hundred million dollars on 3 games from physical sales alone and can't turn a profit. What the fuck are they doing with the money? What the fuck are they spending their production budget on? Under normal circumstances I would never link Kotaku but the whole article is pathetic and rescued only by the comments owning the shit out of the author (there's 2-3 per paragraph). |
