Horrible article. The same people saying this guy is right are the same people buying Grand Threft Auto, The Last of Us, Uncharted, Halo, Beyond, etc These games are expensive. Lot of workers, costly engines, actors, voice actors, etc Show a little respect instead of whining all the time. Apparently because you can name two games that gets away with a AAA budget does not make you right. Throw in nintendo because they can get away with it too, but other developers focus on AAA because AA and class C games dont sell well.  Stop acting like developers/publishers owe you something.  

How is it horrible? It is absolutely true that if a game is unprofitable when selling 4-6M copies then something is wrong on the developer/publishers end and is not the fault of the consumer.


How so?  First off you are wrong on the Tomb Raider end as it was profitable.  The developers was happy with Tomb Raider numbers.  Square Enix on the other hand expected more.  Tomb Raider was suppose to be SE's savior and it wasn't good enough for them.  So that argument is moot.

Truth is AAA games is what people wants, but then we have this loud abnoxious group on the internet whining because they feel entitled to these 

We don't know this. The only number we ever saw was what they expected to sell. We still haven't seen actual shipment numbers.
