I read that LoD cost 16 million to make, which at the time was huge. Shu said it didn't make any profit until they released it in the US where it was most popular and ended up bring in some decent money. I get the feeling Sony wanted LoD to do far better than it did, even though it did great they wanted FF level of success.


Even at this cost it made a lot of money to Sony, but yes, just when it came to USA.
I don't think Sony should expect the same level of success than FF, they were a newcomer company at the market and bringing a new game, it hardly would manage to achive what FF did at it best form with a first try and that near to the FF success.
But LoD took too much time in the making, maybe they thought they really could manage it. Well, LoD seems way better than FF7, graphically, and I can't judge the story or gameplay being better as I haven't played FF7, but seems like Sony did they part right, but was expecting something almost impossible.

You havent play ff7 :O what FF's have you played?
