A game cost much more than a movie-ticket though, so it isn't that strange

Yes, but it begs the question of production cost(s) for The Last Of Us.

Production cost has absolutely zero to do with a games/movies gross earnings. Gross earnings does not mean profit. Gross earnings is how much the consumer has spent on the product, nothing else included.

The last of us would have to sell about 3.7 million copies (there are limited editions which cost more than $60) this week in order to outdo Man of Steel, and thats not even including the $170 million dollars MoS has made from endorsements/advertisements. That's $370 million dollars that MoS has already made, $200 million just from movie tickets alone which still equates to 2.5 times the amount that TLoU has grossed so far this week.
