No chance this game has made a profit, absolute ZERO!!!
Not saying it won't, but it definitely hasn't yet and would be considered a massive failure internally. Devs don't make games to break even.

Based on what data?  I'm not disputing your claim...I'm just curious as to how you got there?

I would like to know how this was calculated as well.  Assuming the Studio spent only $30m developing the title (not a large figure for the HD consoles), then that would mean the overall revenue would be $120m at $60 a copy.  This means the developer would need to clear $15 per copy to break even.  Possible, particularly if Sony covered a lot of the marketing costs, etc.  But if the development cost was closer to $40m or $50m, then the amount cleared would have to be higher.

Yeah...somebody had a break-out for the revenue pie for a game...does anybody know the link?  Based on sales to-date...I'm not sure I see how it was a loss...The game wasn't extensively bundled (I don't believe), so I'm skeptic about that claim.
