Red Steel cost over 10 million to make?!?!?! In my mind, there's no way it even passed 3 million... Do you have a Link, Esa-Petteri?

That is amazing, especially considering how crappy the game was in almost all aspects.

Was there any specific reason for that high cost, or is that normal? I find it hard to believe that it had the same budget as games like TP, SMG, and MP3.

 

I don't think that you will find answer for that from these forums. :) I'm just saying that wii games aren't automatically ~5x cheaper to develop than hd-games, like some people seem to think around here.
