I guess they are lucky GT5: Prologue covered up for all the costs of GT5!

Really not sure about this. 4 million sales is quite good, but it was a budget priced game and it has to cover 5 years of development costs. If Sony gets about £10 for every game sold to retail that's only 40million, which is an insanely low cost to develop a top tier title like GT5 for 5 years. That's only 8 million a year and it would have to include things like licensing. I think the best we can say is that Prologue offset about half the Dev cost.

 

Actually they sold 5 Million of GT5 : Prologue
