On VGC PS3 has 1030 games listed with some sales data. and total game sales for those 1030 games are recorded as 670 million. This gives us an average of 650K sales per game. But that's an underestimate of course in the very least due to PSN sales of retail games.
So given many games don't have massive budgets shouldn't a 650-700K average actually be reasonable for this industry?
Or is the industry far too heavily skewed towards producing games with high budgets?
Do we blame, a little bit, reviewers who rather than giving a game 1 score they break down score to include giving a game a graphcs / visuals / presentation score? Having a 3 or 4 component score then average of those component scores rating system gives undue weight to graphics as a part of the overall score.
