GT5's budget was for everything $60 million. GT5:P sold: 5.33 million copies GT5 sold: 7.3 million copies. thats 12.63 million in total. now since GT5p retailed for $40, i will assume Sony/Polyphony got around $20 per copy sold. so $20 x 5.33 million = $110 million so they profited on GT5p just by its self, by $50 million now you add the 7.3 million GT5, we will assume Sony/PD made $35 per copy. so $35 x 7.3 = $255 million so in total they have made around $365 million from this game in revenue
then they also have sold over 1 million DLC's
so i will say 1.5 million x $7 = $10.5 million
so around $380 million this game is extremely extremely profitable!

love the estimate, but i'd like to think Sony took in more then just $35 per copy, but that's very logical. thanks bud.

Did you not check out the link that I sent you from what Yo_John wrote on Man-bear-pigs thread? It shows what companies make back in a nice graph.
