So Microsoft's expansion pack and Forza 3 are that much better than Uncharted 2 and Ratchet and Clank?

Please don't drag in 3rd party games like their 1st party, that's something I can't stand

They have much more sales potential, which is the point of why people think it's bad to have GT5 fall out of the holiday season. So in that respect, yes an expansion pack and Forza 3 are MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better than Uncharted 2 and Ratchet & Clank.

You do know that R&C games sell well, right? And if I'm not mistaken, pre-orders are the same for Uncharted 2 and FM3. Halo 3: ODST of course is selling like hot cakes, but do you think it'll move systems? I doubt it, given that most of the people buying it are Halo 3 owners. And Demon's Souls pre-orders are picking up, too. Furthermore, FFXIII bundle will sell like crazy in Japan. And then there's also the GoW 1 & 2 collection re-release. That is a great line-up. Left 4 Dead 2, I don't know how that will sell.

I'm aware that R&C sells well compared to most titles, but is clearly not in the league of Uncharted 2, Forza 3 and Halo 3 ODST. Regarding Forza and Uncharted, I believe Forza will be bundled in certain regions, including Europe, so I frankly don't see Uncharted catching up. When we put the four up to each other, it's clear which set is the winner. This is why Sony could have used GT5 this fall.

Regarding the rest and system sellers, I'm just going to repeat what you originally said "Please don't drag in 3rd party games like their 1st party, that's something I can't stand" and leave it at that.
