Well we have basically no way of knowing what the budget actually was and that's the problem. All we can do is make educated guesses and in this case especially it's really difficult to get an accurate idea of the potential costs involved due to overlap, platform transition, scope etc. just further proves my point that not having access to production costs makes revenue a moot point.
Yea revenue for games is higher now than ever before but so are dev costs so while revenue may be high across the board in the industry ROI could be down compared to past sales. We simply have no way of doing a comparison in this regard and it's frustrating
