Goes a long way to explaining why so many AAA titles are so flawed these days, especially at launch. It sounds like a bloody rough industry, even if I'd still love to be a part of it in an ideal world.
Thoughts?
Wow, what the shit is going on with this link?

Great article however I think they've misinterpreted the "Games developers are lazy" I don't think anyone actually believes they don't work hard I think they actually meant making the same game year on year instead of pushing the boundaries a little I understand why they don't if they're successful change too much and you piss your fanbase off change very little you still piss them off for not changing anything its quite the balancing act of changing enough that it's different but the core gameplay of what made your game successful is still there. "Game development is easy" does anyone actually believe this? "DLC is evil" I have thought that many times although I do truly believe that there it's not bad when its done right Borderlands comes to mind
