Dry spell in gaming?

[Kantor]

Every July, this happens, and every July, people complain and use it as proof that the industry is dying.

Look, E3 was a month ago, the holiday season is in four months, gamescom is tiny, sales aren't overly exciting. Like every July.

This holiday's line-up is head and shoulders above that of last year, and head, shoulders and torso above 2008.
