A quick thought

America Preorders America sales currently
U2- 180k 2.5 million
GT5- 280k 1.8 million
GOW3- 480k 2.65 million
U3- 280k (6weeks) N/A

I think its safe to say we can expect 3 million American sales for U3.

Time for hype

Yes, U3 will bomb. I think it will just manage 5-6 million units which is nothing compared to what MW3 will do, so that's a pretty big fail.

I think the same Uncharted 3 will not sell more than its predecessor, 4-6 million lifetime is realistic. Uncharted2 sell better than Uncharted1 because of the Hype that was around that Game, because many Reviewers give the game phenomenal Scores and the graphics was better than any other game at this time, but this time it is different Uncharted 3 has no that big hype that Uncharted 2 had, the graphics are not real different than Uncharted 2 and many other Games like Crysis 2, Rage or Gears of War 3 have caught up to that Level and the Review Score are sure will be lower this time.

AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA loololololol if only there was a tv show called funniest internet posts this would win!!

no big hype? here are the facts get it through you plzzz

1. Uncharted 3 has double the preorders

2. it's bundled for christmas it's a garunteed 2.5m (lowest) by years end

3. it has a subway promotion

4. primetimes advertising

5. all those games u have mentioned arn't even in the same library (graphically) as uncharted 3

6. Uncharted 3 topped e3 with the most game awards

7. have u really watched any uncharted 3's video's lately

8. how can a game with higher preorders more bundling better advertising better promotions sell worse then the predecessor

9. Uncharted 3 isn't even out yet and it's already gonna be a goty contender

i cant believe how trollish xbox supporters will go these days not even mentioning the low pre orders of forza? even though the game has amazing legs and will do 4-5m LT.

seriously get over yourself these articles are pathetic.

i mean how could this game fail, it has primetime advertising christmas bundling subway promotion and those other 5m people who have uncharted 2

I think you need to calm down a bit.... your post is just as bad.

why do you keep going on about forza... forza is a game that will have better pre-orders than its previous incarnation and is a growing series and a great success.

chill.

Forza will only continue to grow if MS bundles it again. Otherwise it will probably fall short.

Simply put in Americas alone UC3 has more pre orders than UC2 had at this point before its release.

Uncharted 2 September 5 2009 (6 weeks before release) 40,408 pre orders.

Uncharted 3 September 24 2011 (6 weeks before release) 248,658 pre orders.

Just look at the numbers man. UC3 will most certainly do better than UC2. So will it bomb in relation to Sony standards? no. Will it sell less than Halo series games yes, but Uncharted 3 will be at the top of Sony exclusive game sales within the next couple of years.

so forza will bomb then?

still not sure what forza is doing in here?

Thats not what I said, I just said it wouldn't grow over previous iterations. As for why Forza's here? I don't know, I was just jumping into the conversation.
