Fable 3 getting big sales combined with this being same price as normal 250gig 360 mean heavy bundling
Uncharted 3 getting big sales combined with this being the same price as normal 320gig PS3 means amazing sales?
Someone explain to me why the crowd that goes on and on about heavily bundled games isn't complaining about uncharted 3? Why is it if 360 fans dare praise the sales of Fable, or Forza, they get laughed at, but the uncharted series gets praise about its sales despite always getting heavily bundled from the day it comes out.

Difference is that people will buy that 360 bundle for the 3months of free xbox gold and halo reach, noone is buying it for fable. With the uncharted 3 bundle people actually want to play uncharted 3. Hence Fable 3 is piggybacking on the complete bundle, its not moving the bundle because people actually want it. Its a good way for MS to give some shine to a game that isn't that popular.

Because you know all right? People that buy the bundle buy it for both games and 3 months gold to a much lesser extent. What is with the people saying the Fable series is not a popular? Fable 3 sold slightly over 3 million without bundles and Fable 2 has sold almost 4 million. It's one of the most popular WRPG series.

Nobody is buying that bundle for Fable 3 dont lie to yourself. Fable 3 has been bundled for a long time and Fable 2 sales are pretty much all due to excessive bundling.
Neither Fable II (~880k) or III (~900k) sold over a million copies in the first week so stop drinking that MS juice. Unless we round up by hundreds of thousands now a days for MS exclusives.
MW3 and Gears 3 are bundled, the $100 premium is for the extra controller and the custom paint job etc. To tell me that the game is not discounted in that bundle is foolish.
MS kids just stop it....stop it

So can you give me solid evidence folks are not buying the bundle for both games, but just Reach? I have a very strong feeling that your just talking out your ass. Your acting like most of Fables sales are from bundles, which is complete crap. Fable 2 was bundled slightly with Halo 3 for a very short while during spring.
What does week 1 sales have to do with anything? So if a game doesn't sell over a million the first week it has crap sales. Well then 95% of ps3 exclusives would be in this category.
Fable 3 sold slightly over 3 million before the bundles and Fable 2 has 3.99 million. Nothing crappy about that. Stop being a hater and accept the fact Fable is a very big franchise, and sells on it's own. Obviously not as big as Halo, but how many franchises are? Fable 3 would have hit 4 million on it's own anyway.
