[QUOTE="GreyLord, post: 7842642, member: 4348"] How much money is one talking about. WotC may not have it on hand, but Hasbro probably does. Hasbro has a little experience with video games as of late, though many may say it was bad. Hasbro has other franchise/brands that have had video games that have been put out there such as Transformers and other arenas which have had games for their particular grouping. Of course, how much money will be sunk into a game is debatable as well. I'll leave it more up to the risk calculators and those who deal with that area to hopefully figure it out. I'm not seeing that it would be specifically a money thing though, and not sure if Hasbro has to spend a massive budget to get a AAA game. According to Wikipedia though AAA games are Which means for most of those which are not blockbusters, it's more of a subjective term. A LOT of those games people would classify as AAA games, even if they have massive budgets...aren't actually AAA games in that light. And games that may not have had a massive budget at first...can turn into a AAA game if it sells enough and becomes popular enough. Hasbro itself could be considered at least mid-sized I'd think...and a studio could be a mid-sized studio under Hasbro. [/QUOTE]
