Mid-tier games are just getting more and more squeezed out the industry. Something like Darksiders would never have the appeal to be a big 3m+ for few months type seller, and unfortunately those are the sort of sales it needed to be a viable money making IP worth buying. As costs go up games like this will struggle to find funding, they either need to 'downsize' to the downloadable space or not bother I guess. Tis a shame but hardly something new - we've seen the same thing happens to franchises like Socom, Red Faction, Prince of Persia etc in recent years.
