Flamebait title.
Anyway should have at least waited until VgChartz posted first week sales of at least EMEAA and America.
compared to U2, U3 is NOT a a flop, its a huge success.
compared to an XBox 360 exclusive, lets say Gears 3, it is in fact a major flop.(at least in first week sales)
For the guys (or guy) taking this opportunity to try and bash Batman and Gears, allow me to point out this:
Uncharted 3 is a beautiful creation. It looks great. It sounds great. It has moments that will work on your emotions. The controls could be tighter but that's just me. Speaking solely about their single player campaigns, Uncharted 3 is more of an "interactive movie" than a game. Gears and Batman feature fun gameplay mechanics first. If I were one to WATCH a game, Uncharted 3 would top the other two. When it comes to PLAYING a game, Gears and Batman leapfrog U3.
U3 will do very well. Just because it hasn't set the world on fire with its sales is no reason to lash out. Trying to make other games look bad does nothing to help your cause. Be patient. It's not a race, guys. Besides, U3 released on Tuesday. Today is Saturday.
Not gonna dignify this with a proper response other than, if Skyward sword sells more than 500k in launch, color me impressed.

Looking at its individual parts, it can't seriouly compete with games that have a more focused approach, but in the sum it works. So with this in mind, it shouldn't be shocking that its first week numbers weren't particularly high. It should have good legs, so it won't be a MAJOR flop. But we can still say that Sony games don't sell well on Sony systems. |
i just don't get how a 30% increase is a flop and i just don't trust these numbers first it's november 2nd it's had sony's biggest advertising budget ever and it's been given bundling everywhere, i expect uncharted 3 to actually sell around 750k in america and 500k in emeaa and 130k in japan
I wait till the official numbers come out before I comment on Uncharted 3's sales. Although it sure looks like they over shipped the game in my area I saw tons of unsold bundles and single copies at a local Wal-Mart just yesterday.
not quite Rol but a nice attempt.
I totally fell for it, for what it's worth. I'm on a phone so I wasn't gonna click any links--they take too long to load. Great work, OP!

It's alright D21, you punched a shark in the face. All is forgiven.

Dude, you're taking this too seriously. But I can see you're new here, so I'll let the suspense build up :P
