Uncharted 3 vs Gears of War 3 (total lifetime sales)

Uncharted 3 647 72.86%
 
Gears of War 3 241 27.14%
 
Total:888
bevochan on 02 January 2013

Now Uncharted 3 is only 100k behind Gears of War 3, and U3 was 500k behind GOW3 before black friday.  Now that the Christmas season is over, it may take awhile until U3 surpasses GOW3 sales globally (if that happens).  GOW3 may get a sales boost right before Gears of War Judgement in a few months.

Whats important is that Gears 1, 2, 3 > Uncharted 1, 2 ,3



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Uncharted 3 is bundled for its entire time on the market. So yeah, what an achievement. Kung Fu Panda did amazingly well in Xbox 360, too!

Is this a joke?

Kinect Adventures (pretty much every single sale from bundles)

Forza 3 (at least 2m from bundles alone)

And now MS has a holiday Forza 4 bundle like Sony has for Uncharted 3.

The fact that bundles with the game exist does not mean that the majority of its sales came from bundles, especially in Europe where you usually have lots and lots of different bundles.

What about Uncharted 2 then? Do you seriously think that Uncharted 3 was going to sell less than Uncharted 2 after the much more explosive start?

Edit: And the fact that you bring up Kung Fu Panda is a laughable attempt to belittle the sales of Uncharted.

Kinect Adventures is a pack in game. It was intended to only be sold as bundle software, bad example.

Forza 3 actually did over 3 million excluding bundles. It could have had better legs as well but Turn 10 can actually pump out a game in a reasonable amount of time.

If we're gonna pretend Uncharted sells at par with Gears, then I guess we should entertain those Kung Fu Panda numbers as well. Lego Batman as well.

Should make a Last of US Vs Gears of War Judgment thread, Will be very interesting. A new Franchise vs A "massive" Franchise. I think the Last of Us Will win, Meta and Sales. 



Atto Suggests...:

Book - Malazan Book of the Fallen series 

Game - Metro Last Light

TV - Deadwood

Music - Forest Swords

Uncharted sold 3.8 mil first week to retailers.   Very few franchises can say the same thing.   Uncharted = big $$$.

   Whats the problm???

You're looking for a response in all the wrong places. Not everyone will give credit where due, especially if it's a brand they don't prefer.

This has nothing to do with preference. Its just silly that some Sony fans are entertaining the idea that a game selling on its own and mass console bundles are equal.

Frankly, I only see Sony fans making ridiculous threads like this.

The uncharted series shipped 17m as of april, while gears shipped 19m as of december, it's most likely neck and neck now.
