Depends on everything. Budgets will change from developer to developer.

Management is also important. Epic and Naughty Dog have done well (both of there games were >$20 mil) whereas Guerilla is getting up there with MGS4.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
