Forums - Sales Discussion - Will the Uncharted franchise pass Gears of War in 2012?

Chunkysatsuma on 15 January 2012

Short answer - no

I also like the whole "ah but see the game I like is probably undertracked" logic.

Gees what a terribly biased post. U3 barely managed 3.5m in 2011 and it was heavily bundled, and you expect it to come on par with Gears 3? You're aware each iteration isn't going to see the same legs right? U2 made the series popular which meant U3 was more front loaded.

Your U:GA prediction is laughable as well.

It's not that unreasonable is it? We don't even know how successful the Vita will be yet.

When Uncharted 4 comes out or if Vita does really well and is bundled with GA ^_^

well uncharted 3 is undertracked, so it may do it eventually.
it could look like this by the end of things.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune: 4.5 million
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves: 6.0 million
Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception: 6.5 million
Uncharted: Golden Abyss: 3.5 million
Total Lifetime sales: 20.5 million

Gears of War: 6.0 million
Gears of War 2: 6.5 million
Gears of War 3: 7.0 million
Total LT Sales: 19.5 million

so its definitely not out of the realm of possibility.
especially since the Uncharted dual pack has worked wonders for the sales of the first 2. $40 for 2 games is a great deal. and Uncharted has shown to have great legs

U3 was "heavily bundled"? Where and when was this? It was barely bundled at all compared to some games so...?

And why is 3.5million for uncharted GA "laughable"?

i think it all really depends on the vita version, but if you dont count ( extra game not even on consoles) that then no way

i would defiantly add to the count if they ever try and put GA on PSN for PS3 users idc if theres no MP or doesnt look as good as 2 and 3, it looks alot like DF which i liked the most out of the three

i agree, in my region it looked like it had the same stock as I2 bundle, meaning very low i saw very little of those two bundles at my retailers, i think the reason for this was b/c of the very good value $299 for 320gb and $60 game during that time 320gb stand alones where 299,  also from what i remebered it was a US only release

I thought it was very clear U3 was bundled, just look at its placing in the USA over the christmas period.

UC3 has been bundled for free since Black friday, which was 3 weeks after release. It still is the ONLY $299 320g PS3 you can buy. 'nuff said.

I don't get your post? Are u talking about just USA now, because that's the only place an official bundle was released..
