This is kind of funny, when Epic Games was having a tantrum about the new gen of consoles not pushing far enough and coming out fast enough. And while I'm too lazy to check, I thought Cliff Bizarro was onboard with said tantrum.
That being said, I won't be sad to see "Triple A" gaming collapse in on itself. The soaring costs are one of the reasons profit-obsessed companies are trying to whack us in every possible way, and that's mostly been furthered by a dev cost arm's race.
Also, it'll piss off the PC crybabies who whine that 720p is "unplayable garbage."
