They have publishers.
This is the problem with games now they're such a money earner (cod being the best example atm, no real modding tools cos of map packs, formulaic etc). They attracted business people.
They sucked music and film dry now its time for games. Lets Hope they dont realise how much we all love oxygen. its the only thing we dont have to pay for, I bet someone's working on it somewhere though..
