How are games made 10

Another month or so. All CDs are made, printed and packed into boxes. And within those boxes are now distributed to local warehouses, from which can be easilly distributed into shops. Last few days of hot advertising before big premiere. Programmers usually now works on first patch, because in this moment, when game is to be released, they disscovered some critical bugs, and because all CDs are already made, its content cant be changed. Also when is expected that game will be successful enough to make datadisk, team is starting working on it. Producer is in public happy, full mouth of success, but privately he think: If we dont sell at least X copies, it will be great loss of money. (and of course also prestige, which probably counts more than money itself.) But great day will be tommorrow, not today.
