STP: Ever since Street Fighter II first burst onto the arcade scene in 1991 and revolutionized the genre, fighting games have sought to continually improve upon those that came before by creating ever-larger rosters of characters with unique move sets, while balancing out the strengths and weaknesses of each fighter in order to achieve excellence in competitive videogame experiences. Unfortunately, Real Steel does not aspire to such heights.

"While the movie “Real Steel” may not have been all that great, it certainly has made for a pretty good premise for a video game. After all, people would much rather control fighting Rock‘em Sock‘em robots than actually watch Hugh Jackman control one. The first Real Steel game enjoyed over 10 million downloads on the App Store, but what about its follow up, Real Steel: World Robot Boxing?"

The ultimate reason is both shocking and disgusting.
From the article:
"Real Steel is, believe it or not, one of the top 10 best selling games on XBox Live Arcade. Considering the prevalence of the DLC, and the number of people playing, it’s a safe bet that Real Steel has become a surprisingly steady source of income for Yukes."
So a company is continuing to update and support a popular title.
... and the problem is what exactly?
