gekkokamen said: How much money did the spend in this game, again? Is Andy Serkis that an expensive actor? maybe they made some rough deal with Sony? 1.5 million sold is quite a figure, even without considering limited PS3 installed-base in fall 2007. I think they got screwed, this game didn't even received good advertising (as other first-party releases in 2007 for PS3 didn't)...they probably went overboard with the budget? I still find this fishy, I think they made a bad deal where their cut was too a small percentage from retail price. |
He was in LoTR and his voice is very distinct. No matter what if thats all he was in those movies on his resume would put him at a premium. Even if he did a terrible job in those movies he'd still be overrated because of the calibur of them. I mean look at Keanu Reeves terrible actor but that doesn't stop him from getting paid millions upon millions.
I'd say they spent about 30 million on it with the 2 voice actors (not only did they do the voice but they also acted using mocap) taking a few million alone.
