@vitor.gamedayIf the Alinea Analytics numbers hold up, Gears of War: E-Day is in a rough spot. A new report puts development past $500 million, and that's before marketing, which is already above the earlier $400 million figure. First week was estimated at 230K copies and about $37M. Even a PS5 version might have only kicked in around $33M after platform fees, going off the Gears of War Reloaded estimates. Microsoft hasn't confirmed any of it, but if those numbers are close, the financial pressure has to be enormous.
