So, Final Fantasy 13 will have cost $100+ million to make?

Anyone have a break down on what the game might have to sell to make a profit on both consoles? For sure I don't think they're gonna be making a lot of money on this game...

Costs:
Development: $100 mill
Marketing and promotion: $30 million
-------------

= $130 million

Each shipped copy gives the publisher $25.

130 mill/25= 5.200,000 copies of FF13 on PS360 need to be shipped to break even.

Can you tell me how expensive XIV is? And Versus XIII? Agito XIII? Birth By Sleep? Kingdom Hearts III? FF XV?

Thanks

I have no idea, i can't even estimate the costs of those games.

Couldn't you have picked some Western developed games instead? ^^
