How about comparing similar games? The Conduit and Killzone 2 are both exclusive FPS that are supposed to push the limits of their respective consoles. Development costs on Killzone 2 has been estimated to be between 30 and 60 million dollars. The Conduit has been estimated at 10 million.

How about some other games to compare? Gears of war had something like 10 million dollar development costs and the conduit costs the same. Red steel was more expensive than GoW. Since GoW is graphically impressive, we will have to assume that most of good looking hd games cost roughly the same as good looking wii games.

 

 

Before someone says something stupid, how much do you people think that licensing UT3-engine costs? 10-40 millions? ;)
