I thought the numbers were pretty good even if i was one of the people that thought it should of sold over 1 million first week in America's alone as well but still good numbers.

This thread was obviously intended to be a joke. Attoyou was obviously joking too, nothing's worse than Rouge Warrior, however are you seriously claiming UC3 > Gears 3 just because it's a measly 2% higher on Metacritic? A site where almost every games Metascore is based off a different number of reviews, uses wrong weighted averages and only takes into account about 1/3 of all the reviews published on dedicated game sites... FAIL. This is why I despise Metacritic and hate the vast majority of gamers, they're the most asinine and irrational bunch of losers on Earth. Also, by your logic I'm assuming you'd claim GTA IV is the best game this generation? It destroyed UC3 on Metacritic after all, no? 98 > 93. You see, engaging in a metaphorical dick-measuring contest by using Metascores as the unit of measurement is not only futile, it's also total bollocks. Only the mentally challenged can be forgiven for feeling the need to consult Metacritic when determining which the better game is, everyone else should use their own brain to form an opinion, I'm just saying. 

Anyway, Uncharted 3's first week worldwide should be around a million which is very good, especially considering all the other PS3 exclusives have done less than favourable numbers this year. This game will pass 5 million worldwide, possibly reaching 6 million lifetime if all goes really well, don't see much more than that.

not just Uncharted,every game should at least wait 1~2month to talk about it's flop or not
and 550k first week(americas) is pretty good

God I hate the copycat thread, the lowest form of forum humor.

I remember when Toastyboy (not 100% sure on that name, but I know Toast is involved) was the king of these things, I guess I can at least be happy that they don't happen as often as they used to back then.

Well if it makes you feel any better a new season of Natsume is coming out in Jan.

I saw that.  And yes, yes it does.

Well, to be fair, Rol didn't start this one. 

Well known analysts

My god so many people fell for it.

The time has changed where I live so it's going to be 2am for the second time in two minutes. All of the comment times are screwed up! Comments made a minute ago are listed as 23 hours ago!

I'm easily amused.

On a more serious note, I do think the numbers in the American preview are off by at least 100K or so. I just don't see Uncharted 3 only pulling in 100K more than it had in pre-orders. If I remember correctly, it had 3x more pre-orders than Uncharted 2, but yet it only sold 30% more FW? Just doesn't make sense to me.

Oh, and I just realized my last post says it was posted 23 hours ago, even though it was probably only 23 mins. Not sure if that shows up like that for everyone else.

Edit: Oh, nevermind.  Just fixed itself.
