Man people should go back and re-read some of the posts on page one of this thread. They are hilarious in their utter certainty and utter wrongness in hindsight:
CGI-Quality: "It should do a million before year's end, maybe 800,000. I doubt it'll do 2mill though"
PS3's #1 fan Seece: "Why do you post so much rubbish. How on earth 1.5 mill is guaranteed I don't know .. and 2 - 3 mill is logical and likely."
Outlawron: "I really think people are overestimating how much Uncharted 2 is going to sell."
darthdevidem01: "ahh.....prediction time! Uncharted 2 will not do over 1.2 Million this year!
Remember PRE-ORDERS will be high as the fanbase is there......but this also means the game will be "front loaded". 1.2 Million this year 1.8 - 2 million LTD"
Some people were optimistic, but those posts aren't nearly as funny to read now. I'm just glad I didn't embarrass myself by posting early in this thread because I probably would have been a bit pessimistic about it myself.
I hope some of the folks who actually questioned BHR's sanity front up to admit their own lack of foresight. Those that have eaten the chef's special of crow served with a side of humble pie have all been the ones who politely disagreed with BHR.
Kudos to numonex as about the only 360 exclusive guy who has fronted up.
