We might actually see a return of mid level games if devs are smart this is true .

The thing is: The mid level devs were dropping like flies last generation!

The middle ground is almost non existant these days...

To you and the other guys that replied to me:

The mid-level devs dropped like flies because they didn't have the resources to develop mid-level games successfully on complicated platforms. The Xbone and the PS4 are architecturally earier to develop for, so this barrier will be a lot less next gen. Blockbuster games that max out the consoles will cost more, but mid-level games that don't need to max out the consoles will see a comeback in my opinion.
