Eurogamer is reporting that EA's Chief Banker Eric Brown has described Star Wars: The Old Republic as Electronic Arts' "largest ever development project,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], period, in the history of the company".

No specifics on The Old Republics budget were provided, but Mr. Brown mentioned that a typical EA project (non-MMO) runs around $30 million, with any MMO costing well above that. As a point of reference,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], World of Warcraft cost Blizzard $100 million to make. World of Warcraft generates that amount of cash every month nowadays, and as Eurogamer notes, EA is obviously interested in recouping costs the same way.

A pretty big gamble, but we're (hopefully) only a year away from finding out.
