But you are forgetting how many teams EA have shutdown in the past year alone and Square Enix wasn't any better either. This is the way they cut costs, they juggle with peoples careers to get a solid title out.
The_Infected what you said is true but you are also missing the point, you see as tech grows production values increase tremendously and AAA titles are already taking years to be developed. Before it was much easier to fund a game as production was cheap and the security of making a profit was much more plausible but this has already started to change and can you imagine how it will become in the future when it not only takes longer but requires more individuals to get 1 game to the shelves. ...
This is old mate.
