I didn't claim it cost as much as GT5, however, you're off about GT5 only costing $60m. If you look that up, GT5 was reported as having cost $60m to develop in Nov of '09, when it was expected to release soon.

it was never expected to release soon.heck Yamauchi itself said it and he of all people would know hen it is releasing

 

It's been almost another year since then, so the number would have climbed accordingly. how long was it in development? 5 years by that point? so it's budget has probably grown another $10-12m.

it wouldn't have risen that much even if they didn't include it in $60

As for longer dev time = huge cost, that is absolutely a fact, if it's a large dev team. Sometimes games take a while because a small team does all the work - that can keep costs in check. But when you have a massive team (like GG's became), then budgets swell accordingly.

bigger team doesn't mean the salaries remain the same

You don't have to feel bad for SC2, but blizzard has reported that it's development cost OVER $100m.

you are wrong again and that comment above jst proved you don't follow or do ur research

Blizzard never reported it is a $100m bugdet.it was wallstreet that reported it and blizzard shot it down

The result of a large development team working for a long time.

not always
