Uncharted sold 1.4m in Others alone, where there were not any official bundles. In another thread I estimate that it sold 2m un-bundled copies. And once again, $10m is rubbish, it was barely advertised. Apart from LBP, barely and Sony games have actually been advertised, but that only cost $5m to make
