I hear back a few years ago they spent $15 million for a game. i forget what game it was, but now, companies are spending 5 times or more than that. CRAZY how much of an increase in only a few years.

Apparently some of our toys cost way more to produce then we pay for. Obviously its to be competitive and to make a footprint in the industry but its still interesting.

Other senceless facts. I also read that it costs $11 to make an xbox controller so that is probobly where they brake profit. Accessories and games.

But it cost microsoft over 100 million dollars to create the GTA5 game. Although they did sell 6 million coppies in its first few weeks.
