The development budgets are pretty flat really. It's the marketing costs that are the problem. Any game that needs to spend 50-100 million on marketubg doesn't have a very good product. Good products sell themselvse.


There's a million examples of great games (both critically and from the point of view of those that did play them) that bombed. Marketing is valuable and necessary but I agree that spending more on that than you did on the game is beyond ridiculous.
