There's a logical fallacy in here somewhere. I don't think he's wrong, AAA is much more risk adverse and we haven't been seeing as many innovative high budget hits IMO but rather call of duty.... 12? Madden 24, NBA and fortnight whatever in the top games section.

I think there's room for both to exist, it's okay to have sequels but would be nice to also let people be creative with a budget.

No joke, this year's CoD is the 21st game in the series. (Main series, that is. I don't even want to know what the grand total including spinoffs/handheld/mobile is.)
