^ again your defense is budget without showing proof. And I'm making it too easy? Well here is some more numbers for you to ponder. Gears of War made profit after 250k copies...

And no it aint the ps2. But developers aren't idiots. I dont think they expect to sell as many as the ps2 did and I bet they take tat into consideratio ith their budget.

Do you know why?

Because they could write off most of the development of the game as work to the unreal engine.

 

 I know that but not many games have cost more than gears of war. I doubt WKC cost more but hey... this is your guys arguement not mine so provide proof or dont bring it up.

If you know that then you know that Gears development budget could of been a lot more.  Yet "cost" less as it was written off.

Heck if they wanted they could of wrote off all of Gears of War off as an "Advertisment for the Unreal engine."

They simply used the 250,000 number to give an overly rosey impression of their engine so people would buy and use it.

 

First of all I don't see how that has much to do with anything considering the game costs more to develop than most HD games so... even though it coulda have cost more isn't an issue.

Second, that last line doesn't make sense.
