It looks like Batman took a load from Robyn too the face lol. To be honest, nothing can top Uncharted 2,

In your view. For me, Uncharted 3 was a much better game.



He may be talking about the Goty cover.

So it sold 4 million copes since last December.

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-12-05-uncharted-series-sells-13-million-copies

We currently have the series at 14.47 million. There's probably a good deal of Uncharted: Golden Abyss in stores. And there's the PSN sales. Is Uncharted 1/2 on PSN?


Not that I know of, and I reckon quite a lot of people bought Golden Abyss off PSN anyway just to say they've got a digital copy of a game (A lot of people like digital apparently...) I however bought a physical copy of it since I LOVE having physical copies of games :)

I would understand buying digital (a little) if the price were lower but Uncharted: GA was the only game not cheaper on PSN so what gives!! At least you're on the good side!

buying digital is the perk.  frankly i'd pay a premium to not have to fuck around with lugging carts around.  mananging the carts partly eliminates the portability of a portable device and i hate it.  the fact that most digital is cheaper is just the icing.

This is now Sonys #1 IP. People say an IP should be measured on individual sales, which is true, but I also believe number of releases per gen matters just as well.

Good that Sonys best franchise came from this gen as an origional IP.


#1 can have so many different meanings. It's impossible to claim one game as being overall #1.

I was talking about the Batman:GOTY jizz face cover lol

Then again that all depends on what the production costs were for GT5... given the Development time that it took to complete the game. Obviously the Uncharted games this gen have an overall advantage since there has been 3 on the PS3 alone and one of the Vita so far so would have generated the most revenue/profit but i would agree that series comparison there basically is none in terms of revenue/profit (thanks mainly to the insane sales of GT3 and 4 lol)

The last data we have about Gran Turismo this gen is:

4 games, 16.38 million sales * Dec 2011

Waiting now the Mar 2012 numers.

Lets break down.

UC1: 5.2m
UC2: 6m
UC3: 5.3m
Vita Uncharted 1.3m

Yep Uncharted is huge franchise now.

Critically anyway. Commercially, Sony's best franchise still holds firm at Gran Turismo.


disagree - 3 games (i'm forgetting about GA for the moment) at 20M a pop results in ~17M in sales.

GT - 2  game (5 and prologe) at ~60M results in just over 10M. 

GT might have more sales per game release but uncharted has more sales for the same investment.
