But what ends up being a better game? Which game generally gets more praise, and which developers generally get more respect? If all developers just whored out their best games for sales, the game industry wouldn't have any good games anymore. Sequals every year to two years that are hardly an update over an older version...

Of course denying the developers money is selfish, but sometimes I like my games to be a work of art. :P
