Gears of War 3 was bundled from Day 1. Beyond that, and before holiday bundles, Uncharted 3 was outselling Gears 3 weekly. I'm not sure who compared popularity, but to say it's "no where near as popular" is just completely false

uncharted 3 is mass bundled, i looked up gears of war 3 bundle and there selling for 600$ new on ebay, it says rare, limited edition bundle.

It's really not bundled to the degree that some of you want to make it, because there are plenty of skus that don't have Uncharted, unlike a pack-in that can be bought no matter what system sku we're talking. What is it bundled more than Gears 3, indeed. However, the Gears 3 bundle still helped push sales.

yea the gears of 3 bundle is also 100$ more when it came out, it was a collecters item, unlike the uncharted 3 bundles were there giving out amazing deals.

Still don't see the issue, because I'm not someone that attempts to discredit a bundled game, nor do I try to make distinctions (unless it is nothing but bundled from the beginning with every sku - such as Wii Sports).

There's only one reason you see any of the above happening here.  

i'm not trying to discredit it, but lets be realistic, gears of war 3 sold with out the help of bundles and bundled games always do impressive numbers, even when the franshise is not even that big, show me a mass bundles game that didn't sell great.

But if Gears of War 3 was also bundled, then no, it did not. I know it was more expensive and Limited, but it helped push sales for weeks after the release. Plus, you keep calling Uncharted 3 a "mass bundled" game when that is an exaggeration. 

So yup, you have discredited it and made excuses for one bundled game vs another. 

how did 100$ more expensive collecters bundle help it sales, only a harcore fan of the series would pay 100$ more and it was a limited edition. the uncharted bundle mean while is every where best buy, wal mart, i see them all the time.
