Never understand this a thread ABOUT COMMERCIAL success, geez louis alot of you sounde butthurt ,he isnt talking about critical success

How can we hope to determine Commercial sucess when we don't know the numbers for the factors that make something commercially successful (i.e. budget, distribution costs, marketing costs) vs revenue.  It is possible for some of these titles to sell multituteds more than another but also have costs that are multiples of the title we are comparing. One could look successful if you are just looking at sold through and only break even while another might have a fraction of the sales yet still turn a profit.
