Voted dev/pub expectation method.

If we went with forum goer expectations, then too many obviously successful games (On the PS3 for the most part) would be flops.

Profit isn't useful. If Games 1, 2 and 3 in a series sell 100 million copies, and then Game 4 sells 20 million, it is a flop, no arguing with that.

Similarly, if games 5, 6 and 7 sell 100k, then game 8 sells 2 million, it is a success.
