| shio said: Are they surprised that Square Enix wants to cancel Championship Manager?! The new CM games may be much worse than Football Manager, but their decision to ignore Digital Distribution is simply irrational, especially considering that Digital Sales now make the vast majority of profits. Just look at how Championship Manager 2010 is being sold on Digital Stores: What the fucking hell?! It's not on the 2 biggest DD stores, and the PC version is not being sold anyhere!!! Can someone explain me what the hell they're thinking? |
SE has little to no experience in the PC space and what experience they do have is mostly outdated, add to that the fact they also don't really get DD even on consoles and it is obvious they are simply not thinking.
an iphone game would only cost a 5th of a full pc game so even if they only make a 5th of they money they still get a return without the capital or risk of a PC game. Sure if they treated the PC platforms in a better way they could make more money but they probably won't. At least the total war and edios divisions are good with the PC platform, and I can only hope as SE becomes more global they will get better at leveraging the PC platform.
It would be interesting to start getting Final fantasy games on PC again.
