Does anyone know which way around the devs get more money ?
I suspect the gamersgate-distribution offers the dev team better money, but I might be wrong. I have virtually no insight in how this make-a-game/sell-a-game cashflow works, I was just wondering if, since there is no cd-production and whatever, the online way is "better" for the devs.
Frankly - then if you want to maximize developer's profit - you should buy at 1cpublishing.com.
Gamersgate is probably the second best option, as those guys are not greedy.

The worst option is the retail shop - as here developers get money only after retail and distribution partner take their cut. And that's A LOT
