I would agree to a certain extent. We still have phones that last days before needing a recharge, but they are not smart phones (remember those Nokia candy bar phones?) However, with the growth of smart phones, it seems that companies are f

If you read the article, he did mention that his wife wasn't very happy that the server was taking 20-30% of the app's revenue. Then later on in the article he mentioned that he took the server cost from an average of $10 a day to

I understand where you're coming from, but I don't think that if Double Fine took the $3.3 million and delivered a 2D, mobile, prototype-esque game (which if you watched the documentary, was what they would have gone for with the $400,000)
