| bardicverse said: @ Nabraham - See the above for most of the answers to your questions. As for games that enjoyed similar success, both financially and popularity wise? Sure.... Half Life, Half Life 2, Quake 3 Arena, Quake 4, Doom 2, Doom 3, Bioshock, Unreal, Unreal Tournament.... I can go on for a while. As far as 3D game development is concerned, FPS games require the least effort and fewest resources. |
I'm talking success on their level....Call of Duty 4 sold over 10 million copies alone....most FPS series don't even sell that much. They have absolutely 0 reason to branch out and try other genres when their current one is making them a ton of money. Its a company man, why would they take risks and branch out when the cash cow is staring them in the face?
Had to change my sig to get some moderator to quit bitching about it......
