I've been wanting to write a similar thread for the past few days but never did. I personally think it's worse than tablets killing consoles. The entire gaming industry is imploding on itself. Revolving door jobs, budgets getting out of hand, little returns. The manager at the local EB Games told me that they only get 4 dollars from new games, which is why they've been pushing used games as much as they can. 56 dollars gets split between publishers, developers, and licensees. Developers see 8 dollars from games, licensees see 8-12, that leaves a little less than 40 dollars per game going to publishers, yet they still can't balance books. Tablets aren't killing consoles, publishers are.
