Wow, you really don't get it do you?

What he's saying is that the industry is not sustainable under the current model.  Unless you're someone like Activision or EA it's becoming more and more apparent that many of these big games are not making enough for what they cost to make.

Why do you think that SE was disappointed by the sales of Tomb Raider despite the game selling over 3m copies in its first month?

Why do you think that so many Sony studios were closed recently?  Did Zipper, Psygnosis, 989 Studios, Incognito, Lightbox Interactive, SuperBot, Sony Liverpool and Sony Cambridge just decide they didn't like making video games anymore?

How about THQ, Factor 5, Bizzare Creations and dozens of other devs in the last five years?

Did they just shut down for the hell of it?

Perhaps you should try reading this article, also from Forbes.com, and watch the following YT video:

Sony, Microsoft, nintendo are posting profits the biggest players in the industry are making money  yet it's tha Doooooooooooooooomed ho noes!!! console gaming is now the new pc gaming doomed for eternity, This gen must have been the first gen were gaming companies closed down it's not like other new companies were made as if they Respawned

Way to miss the point... again.

But your @bolded response above is typical from someone with nothing more to say, so, carry on...

yeah and you keep hoping for the industry to collapse because your beloved Nintendo isn't doing so hot

What was tthe point of calling him out about Nintendo? Nowhere in ur conversation did he even mention them
