One word sums the games chart up - ‘Stale’. Maybe developers and publishers should look at this before screaming for next gen.

I’m pretty sure every July is like that (Lack of games and stale charts). It also baffles me. When Q4 arrives, every single game comes out and many titles will be eaten alive by the likes of COD and NFS while. Why did Ubisoft release Rayman Origins so close to Skyrim, Assassin’s Creed and others? Why not release games like that during August or July? Rockstar tried a new month with Red Dead Redemption and May while Warner did so with Arkham Asylum and August.

But thats just it. Publishers moan about the current generation when all they do is focus on the final quarter of the year and expect gamers to rush out and spend hundreds of pounds in todays world.

@3 and that is spot on. Its about time the industry woke up because next gen wont rescue their out of date practices.
