Read the first sentence again, bro. Its not about being what Gears was, it was about the significance of the deal made for Gears of Wars exclusivity. The exclusive publishing contract since Insomniac wants to keep the IP.

BTW...Uncharted didnt sell 5 million out of the gate. It took time for it to reach those sales.

Sunset Overdrive 2 will not be a console seller like Gears of Wars was, Gears of War was the only reason I bought a 360. MS should be worried more about Titanfall which IS a console seller. But I am pretty sure they have already lost that fight. 

Microsoft isn't fighting for Titanfall, they just needed to create a community. You guys seem to forget that Microsoft works based off of perception. If a game comes out first on their platform to the common man thats just as a good as it being exclusive, because people will associate it with the platform. 

Gears of War was expected to be a hit for the very beginning, which prompted the creation of Uncharted. Sony knew and saw it coming and set Naughty Dog to the task. This game has a lot of potential to be a 2-3 million seller as it marketshare grows. Once again, Uncharted wasn't very popular when it first came out. After Uncharted 2 became widely popular thats when we witnessed a huge sales spike for that game.
