20 of the Most Expensive Games Ever Made

Added: 30.05.2015 0:01 | 48 views | 0 comments


1. Destiny - 2014



Activision spent $500 million on the development and promotion of Destiny, the most expensive game ever made. Destiny cost more than most summer blockbusters!


2. Grand Theft Auto V - 2013



In Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto V, you can hijack an armored truck. The game's developers might've had to do the same, given the $265 million price tag on the open-world action game.


3. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - 2009



Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was an incredibly successful game that cost about $50 million to develop. Add on $200 million on launch and marketing costs, you've got a quarter-mil invested.


4. Star Wars: The Old Republic - 2011



The Star Wars MMORPG was developed by more than 800 people over six years and cost $200 million.


5. Final Fantasy VII - 1997



Spending $145 million on a game made in the '90s is hard to wrap your mind around. At least the final product was one of the best RPGs of all time.


6. Shenmue II - 2001



The sequel to the original Shenmue cost $132 million.


7. Max Payne 3 - 2012



The gritty shooter from Rockstar was a $105 million expenditure for the developer. It sure was a better use of money than the movie.


8. Grand Theft Auto IV - 2008



Back in 2008, Grand Theft Auto IV was the most expensive game of all time, at $100M. Now that figure looks minuscule in comparison to other games' big budgets.


9. Too Human - 2008



The Xbox 360 exclusive cost developer Silicon Knights $100 million to make. A sequel to the expensive original is reportedly in the works.


10. Red Dead Redemption - 2010



Red Dead Redemption will go down as one of Rockstar's greatest efforts. Venturing into the wild, wild west tallied $100 million for the GTA developer.


11. Disney Infinity - 2013



Disney put more than $100 million into the Infinity franchise. Disney Infinity uses various figurines that sync with the game and allow custom, interchangeable gameplay.


12. Deadpool - 2013



Activision's High Moon Studios spent an estimated $100 million on Deadpool. Unfortunately, the game was released to less-than-stellar reviews.


13. Tomb Raider - 2013



Reboots are never cheap, but they can definitely be worth it. This fresh take on the Tomb Raider franchise revitalized the game series and was well worth the $100 million price.


14. Defiance - 2013



Defiance was born out of a convergence of television and video games. Based on SyFy's series of the same name, an MMORPG was released at a price tag of $80 million.


15. Shenmue - 1999



An extremely pricey game to make at $70 million, Shenmue took seven years to develop and sold just 1.2 million copies.


16. Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots - 2008



With the amount of detail packed into Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, it's shocking that Konami was able to bring it to the masses for just $70 million.


17. Watch Dogs - 2014



Watch Dogs was long in development before its release in 2014. The open-world hacking adventure cost $68 million to make.


18. Crysis 3 - 2013



According to the Crytek CEO, the third installment in the Crysis series cost three times the original. That puts the charge at $66 million for one beautifully constructed game.


19. Final Fantasy XIII - 2009



The 2009 RPG from Square Enix cost the Japanese developer $65 million to produce.


20. Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier - 2012



The third-person cover-based shooter by Ubisoft comes in at $65 million.

The Fall And Resurrection Of Licensed Games

Added: 29.05.2015 3:16 | 15 views | 0 comments


GI: "While our June cover story on Disney Infinity 3.0 covers Avalanche Software's next big release, while visiting the studio we spoke to its general manager John Blackburn about the turbulent history of licensed games based on animated films. The studio was put in a relatively dire situation around 2008 as the market for licensed games was drying up and before the toys-to-life genre of games took off, but things shifted after their bold pitch for a game based on Toy Story 3. While Disney Infinity has placed some secure ground under the studio's feet, Blackburn is looking to change things up and experiment with future releases in the series taking on "a different form" from an annual cycle."
