        This time.

        Not always though. Many good to great games fall through the cracks and never make much money.

            People always notice good games. Sometimes they just don’t have mass appeal or are marketed badly.

            Okami, Beyond Good and Evil, Ico, Psychonauts, Gravity Rush, Panzer Dragoon Saga, Eternal Darkness, Vanquish, Titanfall, Rayman Origins, Alien Isolation, Jet Set Radio

            There’s definitely a lot more but those are just some of my favorites.

                It wasn’t badly received. Sales numbers were not great. That’s the my point.

              Not a bad list of games, but I was thinking steam, pc, and independent like hollow night.

              The ones on your list are from consoles (from a long time ago). All but one are large publishers, and most are fairly loved games, even after 20+ years for most of those.

                Im not much of a PC gamer. I never wrote that the issue is exclusive to independent or PC gaming. It’s an issue that happens often in pretty much every form of entertainment.
