>"You cannot have game and marketing budgets this high while also having used and rental games existing. The numbers do NOT work people."

>"The visual fidelity and feature sets we expect from games now come with sky high costs. Assasins Creed games are made by thousands of devs."

>"Newsflash. This is why you're seeing free to play and microtransactions everywhere. The disc based day one $60 model is crumbling."
