BF2S Forums [IGN]GTA 4 Cost $100M To Make

Leslie Benzies, the producer of Grand Theft Auto IV, recently revealed in an interview that the amount of money spent on the development of the game was right around $100 million.

"It's like making a theatre production, a few movies and an album all to fit into one package,' he says. He hasn't a clue how much GTA IV has cost to make but hazards a guess at $100m. About 1,000 people have had a hand in developing it. The perfectionism Houser and Benzies demand of their teams is astonishing. For GTA IV, time-lapse cameras were set on rooftops in New York to capture the correct intensity of the rain. Over 100,000 photographs were taken on location.
