By this dumb ass comment you obviously don't either.

You're right, I've only been running several successful businesses for almost 30 years, but what do I know?

Lol you really dont know business despite of you " 30 years" of being around business. The 360/ps3 era is dead. They're are not buying new games for their 10 year old console knowing that they wont get the same experience as current gen consoles. If your logic made any sense then current gen games like , the division, dying light, rise off the tomb raider, mortal kombat x, witcher 3, bloodborne, Halo 5, and many more would have old gen releases. But hey I dont have "30 years around businesses" so maybe you need to work for these publishers that make these game cause clearly you know something they dont.

Look, be a smartass all you want, I can assure you only 1 of us here knows what they're talking about, and it isn't you. Especially since, in your world, the 360 / PS3 era is "dead", when there are nearly 30 million registered users still on last gen hardware. Even if only 10% of those users bought Destiny 2 at a $59.99 entry price, that's over $175 million in sales. What idiot, besides you, would leave that amount of money on the table? Please enlighten us all some more with your wealth of knowledge.

You calling me the idiot when you think 10% of a 30 million player base will buy destiny on a 10 year old console when barely over a million bought it in the first place. And you think the full $60 of a game goes towards directly to publishers? GTFOH, so they dont pay marketing, disk manufacturing, or sony / microsoft for buying the game on its console? you dont know shit about the gaming business. You're just another basement Michael Pacter that thinks he's know it works. And last you dont even hold stocks in any company so you coming on a gaming forum arguing with people over the financial aspects of a gaming publisher makes you look like the idiot. Muted and blocked. Take your old ass and your "30 years of business experience to forbes "and argue over there. You're the reason why the industry is shit now. Worrying about thing that dont pertain to you.

Keeping old Gen limits the potential of the game. The old systems can't support assassin's creed unity so yea they should drop them and produce a far better quality game.

It's easy for someone who is not the CEO of a company like Activision to say "just drop them" when that CEO stands to leave 10's of millions of dollars on the table by "just dropping them." If the financial potential is there, and it is, you would be an idiot to leave that much money behind. There can very viably be 2 versions of the game, 1 for old gen & 1 for new gen. NBA2K, Black Ops 3, and Diablo 3 are all currently doing it, just to name a few.
