The hype for GT5 was way bigger than for UC3 where I live at least...

UC3 marketing =  Sony Computer Entertainment UK has spent £5 million ($7.82m) on its marketing push for Uncharted 3, a figure which the platform holder claims makes the game its biggest software launch ever.

No PS3 exlcusive had more marketing than UC3 maybe GT5 had more internet hype but other than that its not true. However GT5 had a budget of 60 million and very little went towards marketing. 

Uhm, marketing =/= hype. GT5 had much more "real life" hype as well. I saw people expressing their excitement for it in random places. Did not see that for any Uncharted games except from hardcore fans.

Not to mention that you quote UK numbers. I am not from the UK.

Well I'm from Canada and I never saw too many people intrested in GT as opposed Uncharted 3. For GT5 it was only hardcore gamers but everyone seemed to be intrested in Uncharted 3 where I live.
