IGN UPDATE: Uncharted 3 3.8 Million day one SOLD TO CUSTOMERS Confirmed.

I find the ops determination to prove this is really hilarious.racing1750

I contributed to those sales...I went to the midnight launch at Best Buy

People are not looking at the fact that these are worldwide sales. Just beause everyone and their mother isn't running out in the United States to buy Uncharted 3 on day one does not mean that it can't sell big numbers.

not really impressive it being the main game of a console maker

3.8 million sold-through would make it the biggest launch in history for an exclusive game, on any platform... Trust me, were these numbers sold-through, Sony would be bloating a lot more. But still, 4 million in a day for an exclusive is an amazing number.

Uncharted 2 shipped a total of 5-6 million, so this is on its way outselling it...

Impressive.....U3 it is a really good game and it will sell a lot more.

Well done. To bad I couldn't be in that 3.8 million.

Wait.... Sony owns Naughty Dog? Mystic-G

[QUOTE="Mystic-G"][QUOTE="Nike_Air"]Yes.

Oh... lol.... That explains the confusion then.

This may be great for ND, but it's bad for them as well. I hardly believe Sony will tell ND to make a new IP with those sales anytime soon.

Let the milkage commence!

I mean, I love Uncharted, I mean I REALLY love Uncharted, but it can't pull a Zelda in terms of franchise length.

Not necessarily, I mean I'm not denying the milkage part. I can Naughty Dog stretching the series by retiring Drake.

Once again, IGN is wrong. But, have a nice day now, people. Don't flame too much, or get banned!

:P Catch ya.

Waiting for the next update.

[QUOTE="full_disclosure"]

Hopefully this is accurate. A game that deserse it! Haven't grabbed 3 yet because a few other games took priority(hopefully will at the end of Nov.). But 1 and 2 r amazing.

From Gameinformer:

[Update: A SCEA representative reconfirmed to Game Informer these sales are shipped, not sold.]

Shipped, not sold.

How on earth can people think that a game like U3 can sell that many units in 1 day? A PS3 exclusive? :lol:

Like the way GranTurismo 5 sold 7 million? A PS3 exclussive? :P

Oh gawd, the FLOPemmings are mad. :lol:

I can't believe fanboys are so upset at one little game selling well and scoring well.....they act as if the world around them came crashing down.:(

Good for them,I guess.
Finished Resistance 3 today.Will start Uncharted 3 one of these days.

Sidenote:Resist3 was the best Resistance game.

These numbers are obviously shipped. I mean we are dealing with Sony here. Sony is notorious for two things, being liars and being arrogant. If these were real numbers Sony would have fed these to every outlet known to man. I've learned since the "Toy Story graphics" of the PS2 days to take everything from Sony with a grain of salt.

Gears 3 is gonna sell more in its lifespam, not sure what's the big deal

The DC is absolutely hilarious. Do people find it so hard to believe that a PS3 exclusive sold 3.8mil ? If someone said a Halo game sold that much in one day, everyone would be all like :"As expected." Because obviously, the 360 is a sales juggernaut while only 6 people in the world own the PS3.

is was 3.8 million copies SHIPPED, not sold.

"An update straight from Sony: Uncharted 3 has SOLD THROUGH 3.8 million copies worldwide."

add this to the OP.

Blaze-Agent

so it WAS SOLD?

congratst to the dogs, seriously going against BF3 and MW3 and still selling well.

that's not possible .... common sense .. use it ... call it DC or wutever, the # will be revealed soon.

congratulation to both sony and ND, uncharted is one of the best game to release this year, gamers shouldnt miss this amazing title.. almost 4 million in one day congratulation, im 2 of the 3.8 mil :P

Well deserved, it's objectivly the best PS3 game to date and probably the best looking console game. It offers something for everyone. I'm glad I went all out with explorers edition, limitted Guide and Fortress Club, paid over $300 (stuff here is expensive ^^) for the wohle pakage :D

SW aside, im more than extremely glad these pimps get to chill with the good stuff after 2 hard years of working their tails off in Drake's Deception. They have done the impossible on consoles.

Rock Steady, Naughty Gawd, Rockstar, From Software....everytime one of these fantastic developers get enormous support for their games its a wonderful thing to see because they deserve it.

Naughty Dog 4 life. :P:cool:

[QUOTE="Nike_Air"]LOL. 3.8 mil wouldn't only be impressive , it would be downright AMAZING for day one. But the numbers are shipped(sold) anyway.
