250k was a hit last gen...but game costs have gone up exponentially, as has userbase of video game players.

Those factored together means that 250k just isn't that much.

You realize development costs have went up based on the console right?  Not because dev cost magically increased, 250k is still a hit on the PSP for example. many games don't even hit that on PSP yet they keep coming, developers aren't going out of business, and they're still coming despite piracy, imagine that! :P

Yes I know dev costs have gone up based on the console, and with this generation, more work is being put in because said consoles are more complicate tp develop for (compared to last generation). It's proportional, not magical

That does nothing to address my point and makes me think you just don't have a counter for it.
