Insomniac boss: mobile and tablet won't kill off consoles and AAA blockbusters

Won't kill it, but it's undeniable that it has vastly reduced its relevance.

The console and AAA game space just isn't a growth market.

I would like to think that the 8th gen of hardware can revitalize demand, but the lukewarm reception of the Wii U has me thinking it's far from a sure thing.

It also has me thinking that the business model based around the 2 year development time for major releases may no longer be the rule for success, but the exception.

While I don't want to play in a market where mobile games that I'm not likely to play for more than a few sessions or for only 10-15 minutes at a time are the standard even when made available for free, about a dollar or even less than $10, we've kind of hit the point at which one has to ask which games are actually worth paying $60 on release.

Wii U poor sale mean nothing because gamecube also fail if your reasing is true console market would be dead in the generation of gamecube.
