I'd think that 'having a job' would be a good motivator for a company to accept a contract to make a video game.

of course, having a job is always important, and i don't question their need for a contract, but i question their motivation to give their best for their job with the knowledge that they can end up unemployed regardless if their product succeeds or not.

Bonuses.

If they do well, the average developer could get a crisp check for tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars as a bonus if the product is successful.

If IW received no bonuses for earning over $1 billion in revenue, what will Sledgehammer get?
