Uncharted has sold 1,250,000 copies, meaning: $10,000,000 profit on this game so far.
I think Naughty Dog are making Uncharted a trilogy. The other two games will cost less, wont they? |
Let me answer this way. The next game is going to have a 2-year production cycle. They are hiring more people. So, it should cost more. Anyway, they already made a shit load of money on this game. And they will be making more money for the next 2 years since Uncharted is the kind of game will be released as a "budget" title next year or so and it's still selling well. |
Haven't they said that they will have similar production cycles to the PS2 era, which was 2 years, then a 1 year gap for the rest of the time, so we should see Uncharted 2 in 09, then hopefully Jak 4 in 10
