It looks like UC3 will outsell Gears 3 in EMMEA.

But we all will know who wins in the U.S

You think L.A. Noire will sell better on PS3 than X360 in the UK? Not to mention Dirt 3 as well?

Somehow I honestly doubt it.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Wouldn't take any notice of that site, obviousy Gears is gonna outsell Uncharted 3 in UK, by a country mile at that.

I've been using that site for over a year and it's really accurate. We all know UC3 is gonna outsell Gears 3 in EMMEA.

I think it represents the whole of Europe though.

Even in launch week. I'll bet you guys.

Of course Gears 3 is going to be huge - possibly bigger than Halo Reach at launch

I cant see that happening.


I can't see it getting more than 2.5-3million at launch and 8 million LT unless it gets titled as the best game ever.

Op and I, wasn't talking about EMEAA ....

That said, Uncharted 2 launched to around 400k in EMEAA, Gears 2 600k, you could argue Uncharted 3 being bigger, but you could argue exactly the same for Gears 3, in fact, I'm sure you've just seen ioi's post

So no, we don't 'all know' U3 will outsell G3 in EMEAA, the odds are actually in G3 favour right now.

I hate to question this "great" source and all, but... 

1. It's only shopto.net

2. #1 and #3 are the same 

3. #20 isn't even a game 



Sig thanks to Saber! :D

How are the odds in G3'S favour? Uncharted 2 is overtracking Gears 3. Before this holidays UC2 should outsell Gears 2 in EMMEA. Another factor too consider UC is coming out in NOV and Gears in Sept. Someone's gonna have the holiday boost. Overall I know Gears will outsell Uncharted but not in EMMEA. And right now the gap between 360 and PS3 is lessening. PS3 is taking a shit on the 360 like everyday in EMMEA. So..... whoose odds are the favour in now.

It might in EMMEA though... wherever that is.

Anyway.... sort it MS and Game... I want my beta code.

Dude, I hope they get this straightened out for you soon.  You won't be disappointed I think, this beta has been incredible so far.
