Can Uncharted 2 have the same effect on PS3 as FFVII had on PSX?

and someone will "remember" how "all the Sony fans" were claiming that U2 would be as big as FFVII.  It's the eternal marry go round that makes me wish I could thrust my fist through the computer and slap some people.

And "that person," whoever they turn out to be, will be just as wrong as the select few people who claim Uncharted 2 will move loads of PS3's, or that ODST would move lots of 360's.

From what I've read of Uncharted 2 it sounds like it's shaping up to be a pretty great game, and I have no doubt that it will move plenty of software, probably more than the original.  However, same console sequels just aren't big hardware movers.

There is only one game that Uncharted 2 should be compared to, and that game is Uncharted 1.
