The most expensive games ever made...

Recommended Posts

Posted

With around $100 million invested in its development, Grand Theft Auto IV is without doubt the most expensive video game in history.

Well, the game’s soundtrack accounted for $10,000 per song (there are hundreds of tracks streamed throughout the game). Rockstar Games had a team of over 1000 working on the title full-time for 3 ½ years, and then there are those sizeable expansion packs to consider - all in, it amounts to around 100 hours of gameplay. But with sales exceeding $400 million in the first week alone, maybe the $100 million spent on making the game is a bit of a bargain after all.
