It's good to see that id is equating sales with quality, though.
And why would id not equate sales with quality? People really need to make up their minds.. On one hand, you have the "vote with your wallet" people, and on the other we have the "just because people bought it, doesn't mean it's good" people...
So what should a publisher be using to determine a quality title? Reviews? Criticism? Sales? There are issues with all of these... Hell, metacritic shows Doom 3 in the high 80's, and the expansion in the high 70's... That's not too bad in my book. Fallout and Fallout 2 don't score as high and they were insanely great games..
