Former EA producer - a $100 million game needs to sell about 6 million just to break even

[SAguy]

Some napkin math tells me thats probably not correct. 6 million x $70(Average price of a new game on release)= $420 000 000. Even accounting for a $100m marketing budget thats still leaves say $220m. Let's go further and minus the usual 30% fee most platforms take which would be $126m. That still leaves $94m. Where does that go? Not to mention some might have Deluxe editions, some might have mtx.
