I have to say that some titles seem to be poorly tracked here based on numbers given in that gamasutra article.

Keep in mind just because it says >850k doesn't mean it sold ~850k. For example, NPD had Uncharted 2 at 950k in the US as of december, and the article writer said it has sold at least 100k this year.
AC II might be way off though.

Motorstorm is certainly way off. That is probably the case for Uncharted 1 as well. Both were "well short of" 750k a year ago, so I'm doubting current VGC numbers that put them at 1.54 and 1.34 million in Americas respectively. And yes I realize VGC's Americas includes Canada.

It's also worth noting that NPD never counts software bundled with hardware in their ltds. So the Uncharted 1 bundle could account for some of that difference. Was Motorstorm bundled in the US?

Mostly bundled
Uncharted was bundled heavily in others though, but there was tons of Uncharted bundles in the US.
