It appears that those publishers are just looking to increase their profits, as the console market seems growing more steadily than the PC gaming market. According to Newzoo:
- Despite ongoing supply chain constraints, console games will generate $58.6 billion in 2022, growing +8.4% year on year.
- PC game revenues will grow slightly slower than console but will still show a +1.9% increase to $41.0 billion in 2022.
While that's true that's still a single platform vs the whole console market,wich is kind of impressive for a platform that was "dead" some years ago and now is the biggest single platform revenue wise as far as the core gaming market is concerned.
He will be fine, but i don't know about those left on the site.
Yeah I figured that's what he was going to do,I imagine he's gonna get a ton of money from patreon.
@MrYaotubo: After loser Jeff said he was leaving, Dan announced his comeback.
Oh really? Well thats's interesting,I guess his youtube and wrestling related plans didn't pan out then?
Well holy crap,Jeff was pretty much the pillar still holding the site together,without Brad,Vinny,Alex,Dan and now Jeff it's Giantbomb in name only.
It was at 6M just a couple of weeks ago too,holy crap!

Highly unlikely GS would give 10 to a retro game. But 9 is within reach.
Well that's exactly what gamespot gave it.
Shovelware is easily avoidable.
So why doesn't Valve do anything about it ?
Because it's easily avoidable.
No 2D platformer can get a 10 these days. The best you can expect is an 8, but realistically it will get a 7.
But it just got a 9 tho.
Pretty awesome. I'll probably pick it up.
Too bad Bayonetta 2 won't ever come to the PC since that's basically a Nintendo game.
:( , what if they make Baynoetta 3 , will it be exclusive too ?
Only if Nintendo funds it again. Bayonetta 2 was funded almost solely by Nintendo but Platinum still owns the IP.
Nope, SEGA does, otherwise they would never have been credited in Bayo 2. And even then, they'll do f*** all with it now and focus on their hedgehog, no matter how bad his games are.
They´ll focus on the hedgehog because it makes them a lot of money,unlike most of the bets they made on other new ips over the last few years.
Spot on,aside from Sonic,only the PC oriented franchises make a ton of money for sega(FM,Total War,etc),no wonder they are sceptic about bringing some other console oriented franchises back,especially the ones that,even though were generally critically acclaimed ended up selling way below expectations.
