funny thing is videogame software where one of the few things not effected by the 2008 recession (the other thing was DVD sales), that year still saw record profits in the industry.
You know why, because in a time of recession the one industry that suffers most is the service industry, people visit less museums or movie theathers, go out to restaurants or a theme park. but vidya was till very much product driven in 2008, you bought a game and thats it, you had dozens of them in discount
now fast forward to today, and guess how turning from a goods based industry to service based has impacted videogames in this new recession
