Poor quality control is the biggest problem with the games industry today, at least from my point of view as a consumer. Games are really a big investment of time and money, and few things are as frustrating as wasting either or both on a crappy gaming experience. There's so many third-rate games coming out, it's almost unbelievable. The uninformed consumers (non-gamers, younger kids, etc.) certainly have the right to buy what they want, but they don't help by purchasing games which are nothing but quick-money-makers for developers and publishers. I understand the financial needs and restrictions that developers and publishers face, but really. Fortunately, I think handhelds are a good example of what you can do on a low-budget. There's tons of great games for PSP and DS which weren't produced on a million-dollar budget but were/are still fun to play.
