Wait, Uncharted is supposed to be the PS3's huge system seller? Another thread has Warhawk touted as that game, and wasn't it supposed to be Lair a week or so ago, and Heavenly Sword a couple weeks before that, and LBP a couple weeks before that, ..., and Motorstorm a couple weeks before that, and Resistence before that? I'm getting confused, which game is it? Or would the assumption that it's whatever piece of eyecandy has pics/videos/demos released that week be correct?

At any rate, I don't think anyone can know which of the PS3's big games will do well this year and which won't (do we even know for sure which will be released this year?). Some should do reasonably well, 1-2 million range, but they can't all do those numbers. Not only will some undoutedly fall flat in gameplay, but the PS3's user base won't be able to support that many games, and gamers as a whole have too many established AAA games and systems (let's not forget, most haven't upgraded yet) to buy to be shelling out a lot on new IP's. I also wonder how many will be rushed to deal with poor sales and end up feeling flat like Mario Sunshine and Wind Waker. That's forgivable for established franchises but can be fatal to new IP's.
