You can't look at the visible projects in general and point to them as utter failures or not profitable aside from a few exceptions. If you know about something its generally because its been successful.

Think about the games which don't get released, or get released to such a low fanfare that no-one cares about them. Those are the games which lose the money for the publishers.

Not true.

Only 20% of released video games make a profit.  If you include cancelled projects, then only 4% of video games are profitable.

Ok, name 20 low selling titles on the HD consoles and name 20 high selling titles. Without checking vgchartz.
