Yes. It is important.

Tomb Raider and Sleeping Dogs are considered great games even though the expected sales were seen as a failure to the developer/publisher.

Sales =/= Quality

But Sales does = Business and Business = Life (for the company.)

Thank you for stating the obvious.....again sales do not equal quality otherwise people on these forums would be glorifying over CoD.

Thats not the point tho. A game can have the best quality ever but if it doesnt sell well it wont make money and the company wont be able to make quality games anymore. That was the entire point of the OP.
