Because 60million is a reasonable estimate. The original budget for the game was set at $30million, we know that. It has been delayed constantly and more people hired on so that budget has clearly increased.
And shanbcn let me see if I have this straight more people anticipate MGS4 than GoW? Then why are the sales of GoW 1 and soon to be 2 much higher? Not only that but at metacritic gears of war and MGS4 have the same score and GoW2 is only 1% lower. |
COD sell more then Gears while releasing every year. I didn't meant by sales, read the post again.
MGS4 passed 4 million in SEP Konami reports and will surly pass 5 million by next year. And in terms of hype and anticipation Gears doesn't even come close to MGS4.

Gears didn't have the same level of hype only because the first game was more recent than MGS3 and MGS4 was, and still is, the only major 3rd party exclusive for on PS3.

Name one 3rd party 360 exclusive on par with MGS4 even after being 1 year longer in market. MS published 2 Gears games so 3rd one might be multi. MS is doing wrong by publishing the games and not owning the IP, this mean that sequels can be on other consoles also.

Well, Gears of War is on par with MGS. Both have about the same level of popularity.
Anyway, if Microsoft want Gears of War 3 to be exclusive, it will be exclusive. If they don't want to pay, it will be multiplatform. Anyway, it has little to do with the thread. If we can say anything about the thread is that Gears generated much more profit than MGS.
