Aren't you one of the people saying Forza 3 will sell 5 million?
It's interesting to see the difference in your response when it's a PS3 exclusive in question.

cause there is a huge posibility for Forza3 to sell so much(considering sales of past Forza game lack of competition in 2009, current state of 360 etc). Uncharted 2 will have huge competition and previous game wouldn't sell that well if it wasn't bundled for several months and get a platinum version. Forza 3 have only NFS Shift and Dirt2 as a competitors for several months. Uncharted 2 have Max Payne 3, WET, Modern Warfare 2, Rogue Warrior, Army of Two, Dead to Rights and several other games.

You do realise that Forza 2 was bundled... a lot, and most successful games get platinum editions

I reckon it should hopefully cross 3M. The Resistance and Motorstorm arguments are daft. The majority of people who played the first Uncharted rate it up close to MGS4 as the best game on the system.
Unless GT5 arrives this year Uncharted 2 is the game I'm most looking forward to.



Ynwa.

It will sell at least 3 million and became one of 5 top rated games on the system.

there's a difference when you can chose different bundles and when the only way to get ps3 is by buying uncharted bundle - don't you think? also i doubt Forza 2 bundle was available for longer than 3months while uncharted bundles sony was selling for bout a year or longer in different packages. probably at least 1mln uncharted sales were from bundles alone.

lol, Uncharted barely made to 2.5mln being heavily bundled for like a year or so and in Platinum series for some time. and some people think it will sell more than 3mln LTD? good luck. just like Killzone 2 selling 2.5-3mln by the end of 2009, huh? or maybe like Infamous?
without bundles it won't even reach 2mln LTD.

not to mention that sales of almost sequel game that had a previous instalment on ps3 are pathetic. Motorstorm, Ratchet and Clank, Singstar etc.

Please just stop, you often post stuff that proves you don't know what you're talking about. It's quite sad.

OT: I say it could do 3-3.5mill tops. That mulitpayer will help it a bit, so that's good.

oh yeah the truth i wrote that it sold roughly 2.5mln with bundles and being a platinum series (just like Killzone 2 most of it's sales made by bundles) is of course wrong. and yet saying that Forza2 sold 2mln on bundles alone is ok? wow talking bout hipocrisy and being delusional.

Ummmm, when did I mention Forza 2's sales? In fact, show me where I EVER mention Forza 2's sales while posting on VG Chartz. Yeah, delusional indeed.

Anyway, Uncharted 1 had a good chunk of it's sales BEFORE bundling. But arguing with you is pointless, if it's about Playstation 3, you're at the forefront of negativity......

@ bonkers: What does my comment to him have anything to do with my preference? Can't some of you EVER debate without labels?

i'm talking in general here - sonyboys were all half of Forza2 sales were from bundles and yet here they are saying that Uncharted2 will outsell its predecessor by 1-2mln and like the fact that most of U1 sales were from bundles didn't even exist. not to mention that aside from sports games there wasn't a single ps3 game that sold better than it's predecessor so how come uncharted can do that with so many competitors during christmas? no offence but this game will be eaten by more hyped games and if we're talking bout ps360 games most of their sales come from first few weeks after their launch - after certain point they're pretty much dead.

you're talking bout US here and i'm talking bout europe were uncharted bundles were released with launch of the game or few weeks after - you could only get then ps3 with 2 games and another sixasix for 600$(same goes with motorstorm and resistance). the only way at that time to get ps3 was by buying those bundles. after releasing 40gb version we got another uncharted bundle.
sony do this all the time when aside from online shops the only way you could get a ps3 was by getting a bundle or they would just release only a console for the same price - and no matter how shitty games you would get with the console everyone would buy a bundle instead of console for the same price. 2 of my buddies bought a ps3 bundles with Lair and Ridge Racer 7 just to sell the games(they didn't even open them).

I think it will get reviewed down for it's online, I really don't like it.
However, the co-op mode I played in the beta was amazing, so the campaign will probably be better than the first.
Anyway, the game owns ass. I predict a metacritic of 93 and LTD sales of 3.5M

Just because YOU didn't prefer the online doesn't mean it'll get reviewed down for it.

I know, but that's what I predict. An 'IMO' would maybe of went well at the start of that sentence. Just, when people think of great online games, I don't think they will think of Uncharted. From my time in the closed beta, it's actually a decent online game. However, I think we can all agree that 'decent' dosen't do Uncharted justice.

Anyway, I'l be willing to eat crow if it turns out great etc, but the co-op still blows the online out of the water. It's that good :)

ZOMG BUNDLE HALO 3 ONLY GOT 9 MILLION CAUS OF BUNDLES!!!22!!2! *rolleyes*

Give me a break, all the missing links need to learn the difference between a bundle and a pack in. Forza 2 was a pack in, Uncharted was not a pack in. You could only get a 360 with Forza 2 at one point but not the case with Uncharted. Some of you are beyond embarrassing, I cry for your parents.
