[QUOTE="joker730"]how is that possible when it sold 112k in europe only on launch weekflashattackfina
117k is the US sales numbers

Anyone have an ACTUAL link on this? The link provided by the OP is a forum thread about Novemeber NPD numbers. Uncharted is NOT listed in the NPD numbers. Some dude just replied "117K" to an Uncharted question. I also googled for the numbers and found nothing. Anyone got an ACTUAL link listing game sales WITH Uncharted on it?

I feel bad for Square-Enix if they are contracted to only keep FF13 exclusive because they have a very good chance of loosing a lot of money. Also do not say tons will buy that because there is no proof. Uncharted was supposed to be a huge seller also and it is not. Ps3 users in general do not buy many games and the user base is not even close to what the PS2 was when the other FF games came out.Eltroz

they won't lose money the only way they'll lose money is putting a game on the 360. Japan does not love the 360. its a complete waste of time too even consider this. plus this is uncharted not ff. ff came out for the psp a month ago and it sold pretty good, that all the proof you need.

If you want to get technical, 100,000 people are playing a "great" game thats scored lower than a "mass flop".

sounds like 100,000 idiots to me.

For November my money went to Rockband and COD4. That's about $240 in games I spent last month. It's not Uncharteds fault, just a lot of competition out there right now for your gaming dollar. I will buy it but it's going to have to wait for a bit. EmperorSupreme

no problem. just wait.

Another wishful 360 fanboy thread...what a surprise. Uncharted was never supposed to be the PS3 "big hit" for the holidays. With the delay of games like Haze and Socom: Confrontation, Uncharted basically was left to fend for itself. UT3 so far seems like it will be the bigger draw for the holidays.

As for Ratchet comparisons: there is NO WAY Uncharted is going to sell more that Ratchet anyway. Ratchet and Clank is the first PS3 title with alegacy fan base.

BTW:Gears of War and Bioshock are NOT 360 exclusives. Both are on PC which makes them...multiplatform? lol Sorry fanboys, but if the game is not ONLY on 360, then it is not an exclusive.

OhSnapitz

So why even bring up UT3 for the PS3 then? :| It's on the PC aswell.. And besides Those games ALWAYS play better on the PC..

Hypocrites I tells ya...

Btw, R&C sold like sht too...

I know the news about Gears of War and Bioshock really got to you lol, but lets not suspend logic here. I didnt SAY UT3 was an exclusive. I KNOW UT3 is not an exclusive. I only said it looks like it will be the big seller for PS3 for the holidays.

BTW: R&C sold better than any 360 platformer...wait you dont have one do you? OOOOHH right. You keep cuddling up to your Alien FPS game sales like no one out there wants to play anthing different. LOL

Umm this just might be sales for november, it still has the holidays. You cant judge a game by sales in its first month, first holiday is more like it.

EXACTLY LOL. They are G4 TV's (or whatever they call themselves now) version of Lamespot reviews.

I played the demo, and it is pretty awesome. I am getting it for Christmas...so make that at least 117,001 sales - or whatever the number actually is.

kcm_117

You wanna compare like for like? Mass flop reached a million worldwide sometime last week .

Uncharted figures are until end of November (also no link for these numbers) and only include North America. Bearing in mind it also only launched in Europe a week ago, and already stands at about 112,000 over there - that equates to worldwide of around a third of a million already.

Considering the install base on the two consoles, this isnt bad at all, especially when we knew it wasnt going to sell that well, nor was it as hyped as much as mass effect.

Now your probably gonna accuse me of "yeah you would say that now!failz lol", i still firmly believe this will easily sell a million worldwide sooner than later. Mark my words. Ratchet had a very disappointing start, but latest estimates are about 420k and should be about 600-700k by end of holidays (worldwide). Heavenly sword had a much worse start but is now at around 620k (i think this may be included with 80gb in Europe though)

It also has more competition for software around holidays (cod4, ac, etc). Also, ps3's biggest market is now Europe

Maybe the PS3 has less install base. No PS3 exclusive (Final Fantasy or Metal Gear Solid 4)is heading over to the 360 that is fans wishing for that to happen so they will not have a reason to buy a PS3.

Exactly. The fact that it's Christmas is the reason why I haven't bought it yet.

What a shame everyone who owns a PS3 owes it to themselves to at least play this game. This game is very underrated how it didn't score better here I don't know but it's still a great game. People should give it a chance they will be surprised as was I. You would think this game is garbage if you listen to the fanbots here.

That's just because of the current install base.

Willy105

Well then why did gears of war sell over a million copies in its first two weeks around this time last year when the 360 had roughly the same user base?

On a side note if you were being sarcastic then :P

Fun Fact: North America takes up around 50% of the world gaming market.

Seriously now:

Legs Starwars Wii: 180k

High School Musical Wii: 180k

Sonic Mario Olympics: 330k

Uncharted: 117k

Now I can kinda understand Mario and Sonic, thats kinda like a casual gamers Wiisports 2. After all, Nintendo got these casuals to buy their system, so they have to release games to get these guys to buy other stuff.

But HS Musical and Lego's outselling Uncharted like that? I dont really give a crap about the userbase differences that is RIDICULOUS and PS3 owners need to spend less time on message boards perhaps and go spend some money on exclusives. Noone is going to make a PS3 exclusive when Uncharted, Lair, Heavenly Sword, NG:Sigma, Motorstorm, and Ratchet dont do any substantial numbers at all. In fact the majority of those games TANKED.

Things just get worse and worse for the Ps3, with Uncharted selling a whopping 7 k in its 1st week in Japan, it must have put up some staggering worldwide numbers lol

I for one loved Uncharted, I'd put it right up there with Gears of War/Bioshock/God of War as far as single player story, and gameplay. There was most definetly a movie like quality to the game- Im sure these numbers will rise.

Exactly what another poster said. NPDs dont include the other countrys of the world and dont include Online Purchases. I believe most people do they shopping online nowadays anyway.

Insomniac and Naughty Dog are 2nd party i believe...not 3rd. And according to most sources they're working on more PS3 projects so it's kind of a moot point.

As for other companies...who knows.

GT5: P will probably be the biggest PS3 after the million seller motorstorm(i bet you forgot about that) this year.
