How the hell would Sony get the numbers for sold to customers in the first place? It's obviously sold to retailers...which is what Sony cares about.

Yep. There was no need for another thread though.

Regardless, UC3 is still gonna sell well.

Anyone who believed Uncharted 3 sold 3.8 million in one day is a hardcore cow. :|

Its the same with any game. When a figure for sales is released its always shipped numbers. UC3 is going to be the best selling exclusive on PS3 me thinks.

Electronic point of sale data can be obtained.

This really didn't warrant yet another thread.

I love Uncharted, but even I thought this was fool's gold. I think it was 1.2 million sold in a week according to VGChartz, which is VERY impressive fora PS3 exclusive. Hopefully more people buy this game.

But selling almost 4 million units in one day is COD/Battlefield/Grand Theft Auto territory. It took Gears a week to reach 3 million, and Gears is huge in the U.S sales wise.

1. Sales figures are never sold to customers. How would the attain that information?

2. Who cares anwyay?

3. Confirmation without link or proof isn't confirmation

4. IGN are not the right people to "confirm" this. You would've been better saying that Sony or Naughty Dog had confirmed it. Lol

Eh.. it will probably reach a little over 5 miliion in about 2 years or so.

GT5 is almost at 7 million, and I'm pretty sure Uncharted 3 won't catch it before this gen is over or at all.

Listen this lie has been spouted all day on here and it time people come to there senses. When people have been saying all day that its not possible it was "suck it lems " Now the truth comes out and its "well obvious, it was to retailers" BS!! this game did not sell as much as Gears 3 in its first week and I knew it didnt. PS3 games do not sell that kind of volume on average and then all of a sudden "boom" it sells 3.8 in one day? More then any other exclusive this gen??? and there were no boasts and accolades?? It had to be a lie. Dont change the story now bro. You guys were crowing it was sold to customers.

One guy was on here talking about the "ps3 userbase has increased yadda yadda" I begged people to use there common sense. Now let the backpedaling begin

I kinda just wanted them to enjoy it and felt like what a game success like an Halo Reach or Gears felt like. To the fans who thought it was true. It was kinda of exciting wasn't it? I don't mean to be disrespectful in any way. Just an honest question.

It was kinda obvious that it didn't sell that much. Although people did get the quote from Sony themselves, they should know better. Sony PR is some of the shadiest in the industry.

I've always said this from the very begining. But its true. Sony does some shady things. I don't know why can't they just say shipped. But whatever. It's something I've come to expect from them. I wouldn't trust anything Sony says.

Link??? here is your link....from the same IGN editor who started the lie in the first place

"@notaxation Colin Moriarty
Jesus, what a confusing morning with Uncharted 3. Sony confirms that the 3.8 million is sold-in. That's not sold to consumers. "

https://twitter.com/#!/notaxation"

Use your common sense. You really think "Uncharted" was gonna come out and out sell every other exclusive this Generation in 1 day sales..."Uncharted"?? dude this game is not a Halo . COD, or GTA type game. If it was Sony would not wait a week to bring it up and they would of certainly been crowing that they had the most sales of an exclusive this entire generation correct? But they did not cause it was not true

Not me ... I didn't even post in any of the threads until the final word was out because I knew it was a load of crock. I'd rather say nothing than deny it sold that much, obviously.

I found it more amusing. I'm kicking myself for not being a part of the ownage though. Would've been great.
