AAA game budgets in the US and Canada are generally $300 million or more, as Jason Schreier's sausage on the floor reports. These budgets are made up almost entirely of developer salaries and overhead, without including advertising.In other countries, budgets can be very different from North America, so it's too expensive to make big games there right now.And then we hear another studio closure or major layoffs, and then attempts to increase the prices of games. #game
