Resistance 2 killed the series.

Uncharted 2 brought the series to life.

Uncharted 3 should be easily pushing 6 Million, if Sony advertise it right.

Spot on

and shows how silly the ad budget for Res 3 was... Res 3 had no chance of meaningful success and so awarding the biggest budget of any sony game up to that point was barmy.

...should have saved most of it and spent even more on U3 to push it onwards and upwards.

guess sony wanted to give insomniac a nice send off seeing as this is probably their last exclusive game. didnt work out so well as resistance 3 sales are quite simply shit.

well its really not that bad. 500k+ is damn good for most games but its still  a far cry from what R1 did. i'm not really sure what changed in the franchise to run people away but R2 must have really did something bad for R3 to sell this bad.

Nothing really the first game had the market albeit a smaller one all to itself and was hugely bundled for ages so R2's 2mill plus sales is all considered pretty good , the disappointment  with R3  is  Sony was looking at growing the series hence the money spent and the growths not there, People say R2 is responsible for the series going backwards now if R: fom hadn't been so heavily bundled and  all those bundled sales where to people who wanted the game regardless then yes ,since thats not the case the best thing is to compare R2 against R3. 

Also why do people compare games like UC too 10 mill plus sellers as if they are the norm.
