This is an excellent sign for Sony in general. They needed to make their exclusives must-buys, very much like Nintendo and MS have been able to pull off (Nintendo much more so). To have uncharted sell 2:3 with every system sold is GREAT for the franchise.

This is a positive step for Sony's direction, and makes them a more worthy competitor to the others by that same effect.

Good!

Unlikely. Uncharted is the showcase title at launch, alot of reviews expose as quite an average game with brilliant gfx but the scores are inflated for launch title sake. had the Vita been brimming with other titles of the same quality i doubt its numbers would be so high. Any big 3rd party titles like FF, GTA, COD, Metal gear or would probably still trample Uncharted in terms and sony need to get them on the Vita!

COD will only be a game changer if they sell the multiplayer as a stand alone $30 maybe $40 title and allow it to connect with your ps3 COD. As for 1st parties, i suspect resistance and killzone will fail whilst LBP will do incredibly well.

GTA may very well beat UC: Top PSP game

FF is a maybe: Series has been in decline

Not Metal Gear: barely beats UC on consoles, Peace Walker didn't do super well.

COD is a huge wildcard: many people doubt its ability in the portable space, sales on PSP weren't super exciting either (consider even MoH).

Plus, I was talking about Sony's 1st/2nd party sorry if unclear. In this case, UC beats LBP in brand power.

8	Uncharted 2: Among Thieves	PS3	2009	Action	Sony Computer Entertainment	2.61	1.82	0.19	0.84	5.47

In quality, I haven't played either, not even on Vita so I couldn't tell ya, but if PS3 sales are an indicator, UC wins. Then again, LBP is more suited for touch portable gaming, so LBP may have a better long-term curve than UC, but I doubt it. I see UC continue its 2:3 trend for most of Vita's existence without a UC sequel.

The point of my post was to say that a game which sells side-by-side with a Sony system is GREAT news for the manufacturer. We haven't seen that happen since Crash Bandicoot or GT3 really. It's fantastic news.

wow, i thought the highest selling game on PSP was about 5mil so im shocked!
