Am I the only one disappointed in Uncharted 2's 800k?

Wow, I went to sleep and woke up with this mess.

Now, I understand being disapoited when you expect so much, but take it this way, we had the same thread about MGS4, LBP, killzone 2, Ucharted D F, Resisance, Motorstorm, how about every first party game.
But, the first week means nothing if it doesn't continue on selling.

But in all fairness, with the exception of MGS IV which definitely exceeded expectations, LittleBigPlanet, Killzone 2, Resistance 2, Motorstorm 2 have all performed below the expectations of fans.

The same will be true of Forza 3 - it has been hyped up to the extreme but will do well to do more than 400-500k week one. I'm sure the game is a good jump from Forza 2 in terms of graphics / stuff to do but it will probably sell roughly in line with every other Forza title so far.

bwahaha... Oh reallly? Because some delusional people expect an insane number then it performed under expectations... I can do the same thing as you! since some people predicted under 100k first week of all those games all those games are huge blockbuster hits that compltely annihilated expectations.

Many people expected under 1 million LT LBP... It is on it's way to 3! Triple what a lot expected. With most (reasonable and majority) expecting around 2 million. This was a title that was a shock AAA to most people... a lot of people didn't see what market this was marketed towards... a lot of people didn't see what the appeal was. KZ2 many expected to not even make the same sales as the original one of 2 million with using Liberation and the first KZ reviews as examples. Many said people will be turned off by the first since it was so mediocre. Only the complete delusional people thought It'd get GeoW sales with some optimistics about 4 million but again the most reasonable and majority expect around 3 million. A million more than the original... KZ2 isn't done selling. It will be near 2.5 million at years end and most likely be close 3 million LT. If the 3rd installment makes it this generation and it is again highly reviewed and hyped and improves on the second one then expect more people to pick up 2 before 3 to push it over 3 million. Also, many of those optimistic people expect huge bundling like a lot of Sony first party games which KZ2 didn't recieve. If we had a time machine and we told those people Sony wont bundle this as much as other games I bet they'd revise their projections. Resistance 2 was thought to sell good since the first was majorly bundled.. it wont meet expectations. And I really don't believe many people cared about MS

Huh?

he got you there Brett :P
