Bit confused on why people are surprised about Uncharted 4 charting for so many days straight. It doesn't tell us anything, it could be a bomba or a smashing hit and would have charted for this long regardless, especially as an exclusive (so not spread out across platforms) in a slow month like this, and at a 20% discount no less. 

I think in any case, the launch was tepid compared to Sony's expectations, and almost any outcome would result in disappointment due to Sony's very lofty sales expectations for the game.

In context, I think Uncharted 4 could be regarded as a bomb, not compared to the rest of the series, but in the context of how Sony tried to make it stand up against giants and it failed. 

2.7 million first week is a fail now? Which of these giant defeated Uncharted?
