Just by the way. I remembered when we went Midway offices in San Diego and made The Witcher presentation. After which one of Midway bosses said that they are not interested in our game. Telling that game has to tiny budget (at this time was below 10mln usd). And that they prefer to invest more in projects which are 100%_sure_hits_with_known_brands_and_done_by_industry_stars_with_big_budgets.
And as example he pointed new Gauntlet with budget somewhere around 15mln usd, and said message like "that how we make business, big scale, and small risk" Gauntlet ended up with scores around 60-70%, made huge flop and losses.
There is a bit of personal satisfaction:)
