My point was not that they produced better games but that they made better business decisions ...

 

  

 But what is everyone here debating about here? How companies make better business choices or the strength and merit of thier games. Color me lost here, but as a gamer I am glad a dev stepped up and say that using an installed base as a deciding factor is not for a company who is sure that their titles will sell regaurdless of market share. That show's an incredible amount of pride and confidence in their work... despite whatever system he is talking about and it makes it clear how some companies seem to milk the largest install base.

Now as gamers i think everyone commenting on this board should be happy of what he is saying becuase it is becoming increasingly evident as the gaming market is growing that multiplatform ports and games made just milk large install base do more to harm this industries growth amoung existing and new consumers then to help it. 

This is why so many people have started taking stock in sequels and popular named titles because there is a high chance that new IP from most companies turns out to be uninspired drivel.
