  Dear richtard,
  
  You are delusional if you think Mass Effect's quality game play experience should only be totaled up to $10.
  
  1 Director @80K = 80,000
  
  14 Level designers @60K = 840,000
  
  12 Animators @70K each = 840,000
  
  25 Artists @60K = 1,500,000
  
  27 Programmers @70K = 1,890,000
  
  6 Audio Designers @60K = 360,000
  
  26 QA testers @30K = 780,000
  
  Grand total of development costs to make Mass Effect was approximately : $5,930,000.00
  
  So almost 6 million! and that does NOT include voice acting or marketing!!!!

  PS: How many hours did you play Mass Effect? Even at the low range of 20 hours, $60 /20 = $3 an hour. Still better value than watching a movie.
