Games that are well written will always sell and most of the times, sell well. Blizzard doesn't need to have Jay Z or what not "puttin' a cap in dem mofos" along side you and offering hip urban commentary as you play Diablo to sell more than a million copies.
Midway seems to have chosen to rely on cheap marketing schemes to sell their products instead of producing quality. In essence, although its redundant at this point, selling out.
"Real gamers" are not fading out of the picture. Hell, I'm eighteen myself. The whole idea of professional gaming, while still fledgling in North America, is taking off. While not always the most mature crowd, look at Counterstrike players. Serious gaming (unlike BSD, kidding) is not dying.
