3 million, maybe, it is likely.
3.5 million, very hard, but achievable.
4 million, hell no!

I think 3mil if anything that high.

4 million :O Not possible :(

Imagine Uncharted 3's lifetime sales if it did manage that though...6-7 mil?

U2 had an opening of 850k and U3 is well ahead in preorders. I'd say 1.5 million fw isn't out of the question. 

Pre orders can be funny sometimes...

3 MAG: Massive Action Game PS3 1 16,461 245,491

 

3 Uncharted 2: Among Thieves PS3 1 40,420 188,882

Nice cherry picking of one game that was skewed because of a beta.

We all know vgchartz preorders can be wrong (and often are) but right now its all we have to go on for whats supposed to be good natured and fun estimating

Time for hype

I'm leaning more towards no but I do see it as a possibility.

IMO it will do 3.2-3.5 million by the years end.

I would love it if it sold that much. I'm thinking 2 ~ 2.5 mil. Still, anything is possible. This is probably the most hyped release for the PS3. It is the PS3's gear of war, so to speak.

As far as hype goes... its no Gears.

Pos Name Console Weeks to Launch Weekly Change Total
1 Gears of War 3 X360 7 55,222 1,310,881

 

12 Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception
PS3                       7 16,583 233,811

He didn't say it's like Gears of War in sales, he said it has a similar hype (in conjunction with the brand). I would agree, as Gran Turismo is the PlayStation's equivalent to Halo, Uncharted is that for Gears, despite which one sells a million or so more.

My point is the pre orders don't reflect Uncharted having similar hype as Gears. Not even in the ball park. It took Uncharted 2 over a year, price cuts, and bundling to reach the sales Gears 2 did in about 8 weeks. Clearly one had more hype.

I didn't cherry pick, just a random game that popped in my head. Infamous 2 and Socom 4 had simular pre order numbers as Uncharted 2 with modest sales thus far. Heavy Rain did great with small pre order numbers.

What does this mean? I don't know. But its hard to determine how a Sony game will do by looking at pre orders.

I voted maybe, heavily dependant on an agressive bundling push throughout the entire holiday season. If these conditions are met, yes, 4 mil then, if not, maybe as little as 2.9 mil. Metacritic score is irrelevant for a game of this caliber.
