BTW, it was reported the game cost around $25 million. I just can't remember the links to that.

 

 Wow, i actually thought it would have been a lot higher than that...

It's still high for a game. Although quite a few HD games are costing over $20 million, and that means nearly a million copies have to be sold (at full price) to make a profit.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Clearly it didn't help. To be honest I think FR bit off more than they could chew with Haze. They should have simply got a next gen Timesplitters out instead of a new IP whose story/gameplay was undercooked. Then gone for Haze once they really had some experience on the platform.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
