Andarwinism

Oh noes! Whatever will we do now? Who will make shit shovelware crap to clog up the Market now? Sorry Gameloft, but you quiting the Android platform can only raise it's cachet with users. Unfortunately, if these clowns quit, then real companies like Hudson, or Taito might not be so quick to put out new stuff. They're right, the "official" game scene on Android has been pretty dead, unfortunately, with with only 'tards like Glu Mobile or... or some guy named Phil Symonds putting stuff out. (What was the last game you put up there anyway Gameloft?) In the article they mention something about Google doing a terrible job promoting the platform. I should hope so, since it's not Google's job to do so. Taking money from suckers has usually been the domain of the carriers. That was when they owned the device and software, now that it's not theirs, they don't care. Google doesn't care either, they don't need that money. So it's all up to you and your games to sell it, guys. What a coincidence, when placed in an environment where your software's quality alone is its biggest marketing factor, you flounder and bail. Peace out Gameloft, and thanks for the laughs.
