Too Human is possibly the biggest bomb this generation given it's rumoured budget.
We can all speculate as to the 'hype level' attached to either project, but in reailty when the production and marketing costs far exceed the overall revenue of a project, it constitutes as a bomb/flop. Not when it fails to meet critical expectation or 'hype' (A project can still be a financial success without those).
It would seem as though Too Human comes off the worse to wear in the financial department, ergo making it the bigger 'bomb' of the two.

I guess that is open to interpretation.
Given the game was in development with Sony assistance on the PS1, Nintendo assistance on the Gamecube, then finally got out the door with Microsoft assistance on the Xbox 360, it's fair to say this game bombed hardest for Nintendo and Sony, as they saw literally zero return on their investment.

What? I doubt Sony or Nintendo gave SK any money at all. Wasn't it published by Microsoft?
It doesn't even matter what console it was on. The game had an astronomical budget and it bombed, badly. Haze probably had an average budget, judging by the graphics. It has sold 410,000 and has a chance to break even.

It was going to be published for Gamecube by Nintendo and was going to be on the PS1 (published by Sony I think). A great deal of the budget came from the early years and was funded by Sony, Nintendo and SK back in the day. Microsoft themselves might well break even on this game.
And almost certainly on the trilogy.
