This is based on anecdotal comments from 2 or 3 indies that I know, for which that was true. I do think, if it 's a 20 game, that you used to sell 5,000 copies over time pretty easily, which is 100k. Don 't forget that the long tail was ...

A lot of the rest of that article is interesting, but that seems badly sourced - though I will say America 's Army the game is still being updated even now, and there 's even an eSports league for it, I guess. r n r nAlso, I still claim the ...

Having worked in AAA 15-20 years ago, and left partly because of some things that could arguably have been ameliorated by unionization working hours, in particular , I 'm very sympathetic to the argument. Unfortunately, I think 15-20 years ago was the time that this move would have been much ...

FWIW, I think that '32,000 copies sold ' stat is pretty misleading - it was a median as of 2015, but that 's including massive lifetime numbers for games, and a lot of games being in bundles too. My impression is that a brand new Steam game launching in 2016 ...

I 've been a fan of 'writing about games and not just for review ' for a decade plus now - as you guys might/might not know, I used to commission cheaply, but it was paid a lot of criticism for the now defunct GameSetWatch website, including a number of ...

Yes and no on the 'lack of research ' on Sony - yes, because it 's true that I haven 't had a chance to check out Morpheus in sufficient detail. But I would also say that Morpheus doesn 't seem to be handing out devkits to 'average ' thirdparty ...

Things like this do concern me, actually. Whether you agree with GTA V 's subject matter or not, you should still be able to have access to the game to make your own mind up.

Obviously, if some games are seeing a slight decrease in sales in the longer-term, probably by not being recommended or curated a lot, some games are going to see a slight increase. Perhaps more than slight Maybe Mini Metro will have a longer-term boost because of this after all It ...
