A worst product is better for the industry because gamers should pay for inferiority?
What are you smoking?
I'd rather play great games 18 months after they come out, than mediocre games on day one. What's hard to understand here?
The industry needs that day one £60 a box money, the same way the film industry can't do without cinema takings.
If it doesn't get it, we devolve further down the predatory DLC route.
Then we get great titles from other studios that just repackage the same shit day in and day out.
