I halfway agree with you - they probably wouldn't try to write something like Halo, because they wouldn't know where to start. Simple, fun games still exist tho

I halfway agree with you - they probably wouldn't try to write something like Halo, because they wouldn't know where to start. Simple, fun games still exist though. Just look at all the Flash ones.
- Groxx 16y agoSimple, fun games are usually the most successful games out there. The hard-core gamer market is small comparatively, especially if you're counting by players instead of purchasers. (Numerical comparison: Half Life life-time sales: 9.3 million as of the end of 2008[1]. Bejeweled life-time sales: 50 million+ as of Feb this year[2]. And how many play FarmVille (though it's not overly simple)?)
