Gears of War 1 20-30 people 2 years, 10 million dollars. Gears 2 was 20 million about 40 people, 2 years.

Also why is everyone forgetting Firebird? They have been around at least 2.5 years and they will def have a new game out for 2012 and the new xbox.

Firebird Studios probably doesn't exist.

 

And i LOL at people who still think that old RARE IP's will be back. They won't sell = they're dead. Get over with.

That is what people said about Spawnpoint before they became Good Science, but they do exist, the lead software dev and the graphics guy from firebird accidentally posted the name of the studio; they are both still there, but their resumes no longer say firebird.

BTW Rare's old IPs will be back, I am sure of it.
