Just like in movie business, there will be few big players left standing, and they will be making all the profit. AAA will not crash, certain publishers will.

Considering developers are trying to emulate hollywood on their style of games, I guess it makes sense that they would want to copy their flawed business models too..

When you try to emulate Hollywood WITHOUT having box office and charge over 6 times for your product than Hollywood does, AND also miss other revenue streams, you are asking for serious trouble.  And guess what they are doing now?

This thread feels like something I have been echoing awhile.  I guess word about Square-Enix missing with titles that people thought were really good is a wake up call.  Combine with discussing Nintendo and others, and it is, "What now?"

I do welcome the Indie uprising, and welcome any fans of Indie stuff to go to caders.com and join the Facebook group I have that is for Indie stuff.  Yes, I did a self-plug there.
