At an average wage of 70k and a dev time of 3 years, the game should have cost 21 million (Which is roughly what Uncharted 2 cost). 3.5 million copies, even at 30 dollar profit, that's 105 million Square should have made off of Tomb Raider in revenue... 85 million in profit, did I screw up somewhere? |
when calculating wages there is alot more too it. Payroll tax, insurance, and regulation the city/state/country may have. Its hard to just estimate a cost like that. you need more facts. Where does the 70k avg salary come from?
