According to this L.A. Noire had already cost 20+ million under Sony in 2005.

Also this:
"Five years of development by a team of over 100 with the aid of Rockstar Games’ developers might very well be another budget north of 75 million, not including marketing. That would suggest a breakeven point for the title to be well over 3 million units. Take Two investors were shell-shocked by how much sales were needed to make Red Dead Redemption a success. If this title does not break out in a big way, investors should be prepared for another shocker."
