You're saying that there is nothing between "should be moderated" and "should not be moderated" and you won't complain about anything that does not fall into the "should be moderated" column?  Interesting.  

Look, you can make up all the speculation you want but the the information we have now indicates that Hello Games is the publisher and Sony is the distributor on the PS4.  This isn't rocket science.  That means Hello Games retains control of the IP beyond any limited exclusivity contract they might have signed and the terms of the distribution deal.  Manufacturing and distribution is not publishing.  Advertising deals are not publishing.  It is quite possible for an independent producer to ink deals for these services separately while retaining publication control.

Now, again, if you have anything at all that proves otherwise, I invite you to post it.

So, you think an indy studio has the money to ink advertisement and manufacturing deals in the order of the millions. I would like to know who was crazy enough to give them that loan.

There are some things that are obvious. The proof is in their unlikelyness.

But i think this conversation as ran its course. We will have to agree to disagree.

Thatgamecompany raised $7M for thier next game from investment groups before they even started.  You really don't think Hello Games could secure additional funding after their reveal at E3?  Alright, then.  There is no point to arguing over pure speculation.
