A fraction of them succeed, where as almost all of the big SP titles coming out of Sony are hits...
They're hits but they aren't making money. Sony is intelligent they understand that these games have slim profit margin and pretty much don't make money outside of the first week. They're expensive to design , and expensive to market. The one interesting thing that peaked out of the ftc trial was sony low profit margin given their revenue. Profit was lower than Microsoft and Nintendo

Nah its true which is why they have to pivot a bit in their business model


The entire project of spiderman 2 is probably 350-400mm including world wide marketing and development. Let's say it pulls in 800mm-1b before cuts LTD, does that risk make sense to you given the reward of that?

I said, i don’t care because those people will get new jobs.

@Gizmo_Duck was the one in here talking about empathy. :comeon:

Wonder why @OnlyFrans didnt notice the dualities of men in gizmo talking about empathy but having multiple threads and dozens of posts literally celebrating layoffs. :ohhh:
we're still spreading those "OnlyFrans never goes after Gizmo" lies huh.:coffee:
