hopefully this will provide uncharted 2 with a super sales bump. nice bundle too. i wonder if black friday will be its first day to market.

as a side note. VGCHARTZ U NEED TO ADD THE GOTY EDITION NUMBERS TO U2s TOTAL. ARE U NOT AWARE IT LAUNCHED?

i agree, somehow sales for U2 went down the week GOTY edition launched.

 

what is wrong with vgc?

they love xbox 360, thats whats wrong haha

i dont think theyre really 360 fanboys, are they? I have not seen any proof of that.

 

Maybe they just missed the sales for U2 GOTY???

i think they are completely unaware that it launched.

Just because a GotY version of a game launches doesn't mean sales have to increase. VGC are not fanboys, they track sales unanimously no matter the platform


the game decreased from 17 k to 10k the week the goty edition launched....the game should have increased by at least 20k.  its not being tracked period.

I think you need to look at the numbers a bit more, not to mention the circumstances, namely that the GotY edition hasn't launched in Europe.

The weeks leading up to the release of the GotY edition, the game was down to selling 4.5k a week from 10k a week before that (in America), and then it goes back up for the week ending october 23rd, and then further up to where it was before the drop in the week ending october 30th. All those weeks where sales were down, some fairly big action/adventure/shooting games released (Medal of Honor, Castlevania, Enslaved and Dead Rising 2), all of which are possibly stealing sales from Uncharted 2 in their launch windows.

I'm not saying you couldn't be right, but sales were down before the GotY edition released, and started rising more than a week after its release. That seems like odd behavior for a game that's supposed to be up 20k (even if the GotY edition does that, why does the old game behave this way?).

Just saying, things aren't always as straight forward as they may seem.

thanks for the america specific info, very interesting.  i assume the marginal increase this last week is holiday numbers not the goty edition.  anyway i could contact the site owners and inquire?

Is this available for only Black Friday ? Or available throughout the whole holiday period ? Cause if it is, then I expect Uncharted 2 to be at 4.5 - 4.6 by years end.



Who's the best Pac, Nas, and Big. Just leave it to that.

PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

Slaughterhouse Is The Sh*t  .... NOW ........ B_E_L_I_E_V_E

karate kid.....-___-....they've should've bundled U2 with Indiana Jones!!!!

good bundle nonetheless(anything bundle with U2 is a great idea!!! lol)

That would be a great bundle except the recent Indiana Jones movie wasn't exactly one of the best in the series. IMO of course. But still would've been a very fitting bundle.



Between this and a GT5 bundle, this will surely be a killer holiday season for the PS3.
