Endgame just set the new all time OD record for domestic market ($119M), at 12:30pm EST!

Apparently if it matches TFA's walkups for the rest of the day then it'll land at over $150M opening day, which is just ... well...idk if there's words for that.

TFA was very weak for walkups, but Endgame has presold so well for the rest of the day that there's hardly any more seats for people to walk up and buy. So most likely will miss, the guy says $140-145m is the likely range (still absolutely fudgy unbelievable).

According to VNN, the 3 valve VR games are half life, left 4 dead and codename:citadel a coop asymmetric VR stealth game : ValveIndex

So rumor is that the 3 VR games Valve is making are Half Life, Left 4 Dead, and a co-op assymetric VR stealth game.

$150.5M OS-C compared to $95M for Infinity War after 2 days, +58% holds for another day. Sweet Jesus.

Also UK opening is crazy, +85% on Infinity war in £ and easily smashes TFA's opening day record, £11.8M vs £9.6M (IW was £6.4M).

Another titbit: including presales for the rest of the day, Endgame already has a bigger Friday than Infinity War domestic (incl. previews) at $106M and climbing fast.

New thread for sony? Or did they not share enough numbers to make it interesting?
They shared some interesting info, best year for Sony ever, no PS5 this fiscal year, etc.

I think people know my stance on new threads on the forum by now.  ;D

I think it's a little silly that EGS is acting like they are heroes standing up to big bad Valve. 

A lot of the anti-EGS just seems driven by Steam fanboyism of sorts, but there are a few things about EGS that aren't great.  Valve puts in a lot of work in supporting developers with APIs (SteamVR, controllers, free steams keys to be sold, etc), and they handle transactions (Even eating the cost when the transaction takes up most of what their cut would be).

As most people expected.  Late 2020 seems most likely.
