GTA IV To Have 150 Developers

By Cornelius Wilson on Dec 16, 2006

Mike Hickey, a financial consultant for Take-Two Interactive Software, has said that there are around 150 developers working on Grand Theft Auto IV.

He was quoted saying "fully capable of ushering in an entertainment experience categorically superior to the prior cycle’s GTA product."

I got this from ps3.net and I can not believe it, that many people on one game.

Whats your thoughts.

I'm a software engineer. I think it's quite high, but not surprisingly so - this is Rockstar's breadwinner, and it'll make them a huge amount of money for - I imagine - relatively low cost, so why not employ the extra staff? SA sold about 3 million copies, apparently, and so that's say about £90 million revenue - no idea what profit is, but a lot. The wage bill for that many software developers, for a year or two, is peanuts in comparison.
