10000 GET!!1

[EnderAndrew]

Give the average budget for a major console game is in the $25 million dollar mark these days, I'm not sure 10,000 signatures is enough.

"Appropriate group" means that tech support's desktop recycle bin.

Where did you get that number? It seems way too high given that it would require sales of one million games at a wholesale price of $25 just to break even (most companies prefer to make a profit btw). But average sales of a "hit" game doesn't currently approach that. So you got any backup for that number?

[Titosros]

Petitions didn't work for swg i don't see it working for KOTOR2 lol.

Actually, didn't the petitions work the opposite way for SWG? I heard they made changes based on what people who didn't even play the game wanted, rather than listening to those who actually did play it.

exactly

[RevanRedefined]

I don't mean to rain on you're guys cause, its for the better but no one listens to online petitions. A bunch of people have started like 50 petitions to try and get a fan-made game of Chrono Trigger in 3-D ( 10 scene demo merely ) and Square-Enix blew them all off. But, we all know SE are pricks :D

 

BTW if you want to check out their project go to Chrono Trigger Ressurection

[Titosros]

Maybe the ending with a set up when KOTOR3 comes out.

Recent news articles. Certain games are no doubt cheaper, especially if they don't predict large sales. However, I said major console games.

 

It should be noted that some games cost significanly more as well. GTA:SA cost some $85 million dollars to make.

[Darth Flatus]

Thats the upper limit and although the average cost is nowhere near that, the trend is that it is increasing and is predicted to keep on increasiing so as to make use of the super flashy graphics power of new technology.

 

Small developers are worried that this will kill them.

Guys, your beating a dead horse, everyone knows Lucasarts won't change it and you know it! , they're moving on to new games and new profits .

[EnderAndrew]

Halo 2 made more in it's opening weekend than Spiderman 2 (the then record-holder) made in it's opening weekend.

 

As video game grosses become more like movie grosses, video game budgets will become more like movie budgets.

The petition is less about fixing Kotor 2 and more about fixing Kotor 3 and other future LucasArts games. In the beginning, maybe there was some hope they would release a proper content patch, but Obsidian told us fairly early on that wouldn't happen, so now it's just about conveying consumer dissatisfaction for future reference.
