Kagatob you pointed out that 9/10 games that come out nowadays are shit, i'd say you are generalizing a bit. 1/5 games are mindblowingly good. 1/5 of games are good, fun to play, etc. 2/5 games fall somewhere in the middle of the sprectrum, they are ok, but you may not finish the campaign and it'll likely be a return or resell if you get the channce, and 1/5 are complete shit that never should have been released (Aliens colonial marines).
This is really all about perspective, and I just dont think you guys are going to see it from mine, or how many games journalists and gamers see it. Again, the reason for this is really up for you to discover, or to not discover, but theres no way for me to argue this point with you guys [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Basically it boils down to this: You guys dont like the games that are coming out, lots of other people do, you can insult them/us all you want but it wont change the fact that there are indeed good games coming out every month and that hte industry as a whole is doing very very well.

That's fair and again I don't disagree with most of what you say as most of it does boil down to opinion. Even going by your statistics of good games vs bad that's still a little less than 50% of the games coming out being absolute trash, I personally can't rationalize continued spending of my money on a coin flip deciding whether I'm getting a garbage game.
When I was talking about the games that I'd purchased that were garbage I wasn't talking about indie games as I do enjoy those. Maybe I'm looking at indie games the wrong way then? I don't even consider them a part of the industry, I consider them good people flipping off the industry by doing with a few hundred dollars what the industry can't do with a few million.

Does anyone know if anyone out there is trying to tackle the 'cost of development' problem? It's snowballed to much larger then it should be IMO.
