Oh, I thought this was going to be a negative article, which would of forced me to respond... "Of course it's worth it to developers... otherwise they just wouldn't do it."

Luckily, it was the exact opposite.

I was surprised with the Grip-Games case... 10-15% of the revenue is made by the free games.

Sony is really paying for these games.

I'm not... I mean

If you follow PC sales, you know Indie and Casual games sell a much larger percentage of their profits over time.

So to get the non-blockbuster games you need to pay a bit more, then you would for a game that's getting a sequel anyway... and could use the free advertising and who's sales dry up faster. (Partially because they're initial sales are sky high in the first place.)
