Look... we have the disk based formats for these massive games, but everyone seems to be forgetting that small studios are making money on Xbox Live Arcade and WiiWare to. Microsoft, and to a smaller extent Nintendo, have given tools out that allow these small devs to come out and make a game that sells 200k. You can innovate on these platforms with games like Braid that you'd never take a chance with on disk. Also Microsoft's XNA Community games have done more to revitalize the lone wolf than anything in the past twenty years. I feel positive that in the next generation all three developers will have a system much like XNA to keep inovation going and allow people like us to make a game and a few bucks at the same time.
