Oh, and as for Destiny, I think this page sums it up

I was surprised to see FF7 so high in the list, but that price was worth it considering its huge success.

I thought it was interesting it apparently cost roughly twice as much as XIII, haha.
Makes you wonder how much the remake is going to cost...

Nice to see some truth in a video game article.

From what I can tell, that includes entire budget including advertising. Still FF7 being that high seems wrong.
