Forums - Microsoft - How much do you think Microsoft paid for FF 13 on the Box?

We can only speculate but my guess would be at around 100 million. Not too unrealistic if you consider that they paid 50 mill for GTA 4 DLC.



Around the Network

Nothing.



around 100-150 million

I actually don't think they paid for this one.



I think the real question is, how much did they pay for SC4. I say 25 million, cash.


as for FFXIII, Probably around 25 million



Soriku (Feb 10/08): In 5 years the PS3/360 will be dead.

: Too Human I even expect 3-4 mill entire life and 500,000 first day. GoW2 ( expect 7 - 9 million entire life and over 2 mill first day), Fable 2 (expect 5-6 million entire life and 1.5 mill fist day) BK3 (expect 4 - 5 mill sales entire life and 1 mill first day).. Tales/IU/TLR should get to 2 or 3 million! post id: 868878

nothing or very little, if they did pay though Sony would get a piece of the cash. So no matter what any Square game on the 360 benefits Sony due to them owning 8%.

Nothing. I think SE really decided FF13 had to maximize it's profit potential and this was the only way to do it.

Now I think they might have agreed to let previous exclusives become timed exclusives or just straight multi-plats. (Like say Star Ocean.)

That's about it though.



probably about 35% to 50% of the development cost of the game

Why?  Why wouldn't SE want to maximize FF13's profit potential?
