C&C 4? IIRC that was originally planned to be an F2P online-only game that was hastily converted into a retail product for... um... reasons, I guess.
I don't envy the businessmen in this industry. You're damned if you do, damned if you don't, and if the trials and tribulations of Kickstarter, the folks losing all their money on failed mobile games, etc. etc. are any indication, many developers would choke to death on their own feet without your thankless intervention.
