'$500 million' is a bit off (Destiny)

EDIT: Or - considering he spouts that same 'spend $500 million' with no clarification that that's for multiple games - is he just smoking some special brand?

The $500 million mark is somewhat misleading, because while that's assumed to be total cost from start to finish, the leaked contract between Bungie and Activision gives us a figure closer to $140 million for development, with the rest for earmarked for marketing, distribution, things of that nature.
