Well, I certainly don't care for those arcade games. Looks like S-E needs those funds for FFXIII. That game may best GTA IV in cost when all is said and done.

 

You may have something there. With FF's already costing close to 60M to make its only doubled when the game becomes A Multiplat

 

What? Are you saying the tech budget for the 360 port will be 30 million dollars or 60 million dollars? (your statement is ambiguous/poorly written).

That's nonsense. Proof please.

Yeah, it's very unlikely either way. Yves Guillemot has said that a 360->PS3 port adds about 10% to the development cost. The reverse isn't likely to cost more, and since it's supposedly easier, it may even cost less.

Have you got the source for that? I remember reading it a year ago but can't find the article for the life of me, would be a nice source to have lol.

 I'd imagine it's even less then 10% now but FFXIII will be a bit higher due to the scale of the game and it's developement history, saying that, not much higher.

 Where did the figure of "60 million" (No currency was stated :/) too :S.
