"Too expensive" and "more expensive than the Wii" are two entirely different things. You didn't address "too expensive." You only addressed "more expensive than everyone else." I agree with you that it's more expensive than everyone else Additionally, I reckon you'd have a hard time claiming that $20 million is too much for Uncharted when Red Steel cost almost $13 million. Especially considering that Uncharted is widely regarded as a good game to Red Steel's mediocre and that Red Steel looks like a game that could have run on the previous generation of hardware(who's development costs you have pegged at $10 million).

do you have to include the other posts in your quote?

I do it to keep context. If people don't like it, I'll stop.

You do realise that Red Steel has almost sold the same number of units as Uncharted? And that it has almost certaintly (being a launch title) shipped more units than Uncharted?

Ubisoft has made MORE money from Red Steel than Uncharted has made. And development/marketing cost almost half.

Uncharted is NOT a good example, if someone is trying to paint PS3 development in a positive light from a financial point of view. The best examples would be the cross platform titles (CoD & Assassins).
