Forums - Sales - Uncharted 2 Sales Prediction

700k first week and 3m lifetime.

Oh people discredit Uncharted 2 a little too much in this thread. This is the PS3's big exclusive final quarter title. My guesses are at least 500k-750k first week. I could even stretch that to being almost a million WW first week. Now lifetime is another story but I would expect it to at least do 3-4 million WW. But it'll really depend how far it can get in those holidays when competing with MW2. But I'd say 3 million is a safe estimate right now.

We are thinking of adding the possibility to estimate the sales and average review score for a particular game on it's game page (with vg$ pagouts for accuracy) - do people think that feature would be popular?

You mean user perdictions? I do it all the time on 'the wall' comments for games, but it would be very cool if there's a specific option to put in predictions formally, to earn lots of VG$ and respect.

What he said. If kept with a simple design, it would be far more popular than weekly charts predictions I think. Almost everyone like to predict first week sales and review scores

 

Reply late as hell but still...



 

 

 

 

 

First week: 500k
Lifetime: 3.5 mil



U2 1st week will be around 800k worldwide with lifetime sales at 3.2m - 3.6m



Around the Network

750 K Week One (350 K in US + 380 K in Others + 20 K in Japan) and 3 millions with bundles.



I can see the game reach 4 millions lifetime

the PS3 install base has grown, the game has stellar reviews, it's not a new IP anymore, I have heard Sony planned to make some decent marketing and, last but not least, the online part could give the game solid legs (depending on the final quality of the multiplayer, obviously)



when did the PS3 become this giant software monster... some of you are border line crazy... KZ2 numbers look like a high mark but most of the hype surrounding this are from older owners and newer purchasers. I do expect it to do better though because the first game got solid backing from the players and it had some pack ins that may help sell the second one

It SHOULD sell 5-6 million but it won't.

3-4 mill is more realistic.


now THIS  is trolling...lol no offense

Why is that trolling? Uncharted 2 is in every way shape and form just as worthy of 10 million sales as Halo 3 is.

That being said, this game is not going to appeal to most young kids, so i suspect lower sales.


My prediction.

 

First week 1.2m ww. Including europe and Japan.


lifetime 4.5m-5m.



Has to be close to Killzone's first week, even though Killzone had only 2 days for it's first week data.

America - 432k   [5 Days]
Europe - 337k    [2 Days]
Japan - 45k        [4 Days]

WorldWide - 800k+
