Sony: Uncharted 2 Has Sold Over 1Million Copies

With NPD figures expected to be released in several hours, the expected top game for October is Uncharted 2: Among Thieves for the PlayStation 3. Making a minor announcement prior to the NPD report, Sony has stated that Uncharted 2: Among Thieves has sold over 1 million copies since launch.

[Pennywise]

While you guys are playing sales, I will be playing UC2 online.

While you other guys are waiting for MW2 multiplayer to work, I will be playing UC2 online.

Cya there!

[LordMarius]

fascinating

[ubiquitious]

No one has said a thing...and yet your defenses are already up!

---->

[Double07]

I think it was before the inevitable "Took it long enough, Halo sold 5 billion copies in 20 minutes" which we all know is gonna happen.

But yeah Uncharted 2 ftw.

Edit: LOL, some retarded troll already posted a comment like that in the open zone.

[Cwalat]

Isn't it sad that the best games out there get "okey" sales, and the overhyped dissapointments get all the sales. =/

[toaster]

I don't have a PS3 but this game deserves these sales.

[Dread]

pennywise it seems that u r the one playing sales.

but anyways, UC2 is going to win GOTY regardless of all the whinning from the sony fans.. so just relax.

you dont have to hate so much on MW2 to make your point. and by the way, MW2 is awsome as well.

I will be enjoying both games..

o and MW2 works just fine on my 360, i hope they fix the online problems for the playstation 3 soon.

peace

[whoelse]

Wow is it that time already!

[Golfcoachh]

I just got uc2 I have played about an hour of it. Awesome game, deserves every accolade it has gotten. I don't know why more poeple haven't bought it yet. Its flippin awesome. It is sad that a game like this doesn't sell more than a game like mw2. Not to take anything away from mw2 its great as well, but this is a masterpiece. I just hope that when uc3 comes out that people will flock to it. Naughty dog deserves every penny it makes off of this game.

[beans]

"While you guys are playing sales, I will be playing UC2 online."

And yet your the 1st person to mention sales lol. With all the hype this game recieved I'm sure it surpassed 3 million or if not then that's sad gamers didn't pick it up. UC2 makes for the perfect christmas gift so after the holidays NPD will look pretty good for the game.

edit below lol: And how in the heck is my comment sad? Did I ever say the game was bad or not amazing? What's sad is how defensive your acting over a comment made about UC2. Grow up already

[sikbeta]

Uncharted 2 = Masterpiece of gaming

It deserves MUCH MORE

/off topic

@beans you are SAD

I only expecting something like:

-"but I doesn't sell like halo"

This game is amazing no matter teh salez

[TheTwelve]

I couldn't care less about MW2. UC2 has me completely possessed atm.

12

[ico92]

you do realise that his comment was directed at the PS3 owners who bought MW2 over uncharted 2 so please take you're trolling somewhere else.

on the topic this is truly an amazing game and more than deserves every sale

[Pennywise]

Wow... call of the attack dogs! My comment was not the first to mention sales. The article is ABOUT SALES >< Kind of overzealous there attacking me.

My point was UC2 deserves more sales than MW2. Shame on all PS3 owners who chose MW2 over UC2. I get it is all personal taste, but you have to be an odd individual NOT to love UC2.

[bjornbear]

=(...i lent mine to a friend.

gots to wait x(

[bnaked]

1 Millionen in almost 3 weeks! That's awesome!

Naughty Dog deserve the sales..

[raztad]

I hope it is NA only. UC2 really deserves more. I'm sure lifetime the numbers will be much better, but wtf is wrong with most PS3 owners? It seems they are not more than big franchises suckers. How can you pass on UC2 is something beyond me.

[Chubear]

What does this mean? Higher quality sequel. Awesome.

[Sitdown]

Hahaha, I find the irony to be funny as well. I mean if they were really going to be playing UC2 instead of sales, they would not have entered this article to not only comment once, but twice.

[JokesOnYou]

"Isn't it sad that the best games out there get "okey" sales, and the overhyped dissapointments get all the sales."

Oh really?, Are you referring to UC2 as the best game and MW2 as the overhyped dissapointment?.....lmfao, Say's who? Oh thats right, so say's you and the rest of the SDF. UC2 is a great game, MW2 is just a better game and myself along with the other 6+ mil more who chose to buy MW2 are laughing at your "I'm bitter because UC2 didn't sell as much as MW2" BS claim.

lmfao,^^^^ look at pennywise with the first comment way out in Left Field playing damage control, when none is needed.

JOY

[sorceror171]

I'll get to UC2, but I'll be one of the reasons it'll have legs - I have to get and finish UC1 first. Xmas is coming...

[SoapShoes]

JOY, you're crazy. Are you referring to MW2 as the best game?.....lmfao, Say's who? Oh thats right, so say's you and the rest of the XDF. MW2 is a great game, Wii Sports is just a better game and myself along with the other 50+ mil more who chose to buy Wii Sports are laughing at your "I'm bitter because MW2 didn't sell as much as Wii Sports" BS claim.

[RememberThe357]

JOY is sounding more and more bitter as he sits with his one bubble. Frankly, the only people who could justify giving MW2 a 10 are the people who haven't played Ucharted 2 yet.

U2 raises the bar on every level. What was once "great" is now "good", and Uncharted 2 sits at the top of the mountain.

[solidjun5]

you sound bitter. I mean almost butt-hurt. I mean look at all your comments today. It must be that time of the month for you huh? Enjoy your 1 bubble enthusiast!

[Tavaras]

ALOT of people bought the PS3 to use primarily as a BluRay player. Sure, they may buy a game here or there, but I wouldn't classify them as gamers for the most part. I have turned so many people on to the fact that the PS3 was the best BluRay player, only recently has there been better options, but the PS3 is still up there. These people don't know alot about games... It's up to the hardcore, you guys, to suggest which games are good. A person just asked me why can't she buy Halo on her PS3, She then barked at me about telling her to get a PS3 and not a 360... I calmed her down by telling her that I suggested the PS3 because she was primarily a movie watcher, I told her to go and get Uncharted 2 and that if she wants to play Halo, she can always come over to my house... yeah, she's HOT, and if Halo can get me laid, then I will declare it as the best game EVER... Gettin' Laid FTW!!

[jack who]

took it long nuff

[iron_sheik]

what happened to forza3 though? couldnt even chart anywhere i guess

[Dutch Boogie]

3sh1tty fanbrats only play FPS's lol FACT!.

[cliffbo]

look, numbers mean nothing at all. stop knocking Forza for not selling as well as other games, it doesn't mean it's a bad game for Gods sake.

[54percent]

*looks up at UC2 sales*

*looks down to Flopza3 sales*

Bot logic : " Bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu- bu-bu-bu-but teh numberzzzz!!!!!111!

[D4RkNIKON]

I was at the midnight launch day one buyer. Great game and it is a strong contender for GOTY.

[TheDudeAbides]

Naughty Dog deserves big numbers here

[Close_Second]

...but they ain't getting it. I have been enjoying U2 multiplayer but it seems to be a lost cause. All these sales I have only seen 20k playing on-line once!

In my part of the world (New Zealand) I have yet to play play an "Optimal" game and have only played a "close" game several times. Its disappointing how well reviewed the multiplayer is and yet so few seem to play it.

[zootang]

I bought 2 copies, one for me and one for the misses (so we can play online together)

[chase167]

ps3 is the adult console

[hoo_mook]

The fact that the best sellers on both consoles are the same multi plats (COD & GTA)points to the same demographic. Although it's true that sales don't mean quality you can't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Sales data is still important.

P.S.

I hate when people bring up the argument of wii sports in the sales=quality argument. I don't think many people bought a wii w/out getting wii sports.

[ThatArtGuy]

I can bring up Wii Play though

[RememberThe357]

That's sweet! Gamers in love. Your an inspiration sir! :)

[Redempteur]

i finished it yesterday ( after 11 hours 45 minutes and 37 seconds )

HARD MODE ..
i haven't touched another game yet ...
it's time to get back for the rest of the trophies and crushing mode !!!

NOw that i know the end... i understand how this game is still number one in the eur charts for now ...

"four ? what do you mean four ?
- ok ok i'd give you a five "

[NecrumSlavery]

yeah U2 hit a mil within 11 days.

[Ahmad-]

oddworld FTW!!!!

[PISSIO]

Buy this game. It's a masterpiece.

[corywebb93]

Halo 3 and gears off war sold twice that much in the 1st day which proves gears off war and halo 3 make unfarted 2 look like a Atari Jaguar game

[dkgshiz]

What? Oh, man... I didn't know someone could be that stupid. I know a fetus that has more brains then you. Seriously, if you believe Gears or Halo has anything on UC2. You just need to take your own life.

[Thoreau]

when a female does not like you, do you get on a forum and talk trash about females..?

[slave2Dcontroller]

DOGS GOOOOOO! This game is #1 on my all time favorites and IMO the best damn game ever made.

[Sitdown]

how far does your gaming history go back? I am not disagreeing with you, I just know I have played too many great games over the course of history to be able to single out just one. I'll never forget the day I was able to convince my parents to get us a Nintendo...I was so locked in to Mario that I beat it the first day.

[slave2Dcontroller]

Atari 2600. Yes. I have been through many era's of gaming nes, snes, sega masters, genesis yada yada. Before Uncharted2, my #1 All-Time game was Zelda; A Link To The Past. Thats been bumped down to #2.

Man! are you right on about Mario though. Getting my NES and playing Mario Bros was a Magical Moment. Even better was when I got my SNES and pack-in Zelda;ALTTP(for the younger guys- what you refer to as bundles now, we referred to as pack-ins back then LOL), I stayed up for days playing that game. True Story. I'm 33 but I remember being around 9 or 10 years old, I had this dream that I was playing a game that almost looked like it was real. Playing Uncharted and Uncharted2 always reminds of that dream I had 20 some odd years ago.

I just never thought that I would be able to see it come into fruition. Who wouldve thought that I would be running around in an ice cave with some fool named Tenzin who doesnt speak English but we understand eachother just fine. Technology is an amaaaazing thing. So are dreams... apparently ;)

Again. I raise my glass to Naughty Dog.

[dkgshiz]

Instead of playing sales... "Hey look at me! I'm an xbot who trolls on n4g all day not using my console at all!" I wonder how many xbots even have a 360?

[cpt_kaos]

Well mate what else they gonna do when there Xbox is in for repairs again.

[kevinx1000]

sales and numbers of players online proof we do play games.
sales and players proof PS3 owners hardly play games.

[horris36]

not bad, not great, but not bad.

[CliffyB]

My game sold over 2 milllion in it's opening weekend.

[dkgshiz]

Which ruined it.

[Campy da Camper]

I will be honest, I picked up the MW2 cause I really did like the MP of MW1 and WaW. HOLY CRAP IT SUCKS. After playing UC2 I cannot believe how bad it looks!

MW2 sold 4.8 jigawatts on day one. If only people realized the beauty that is UC2 (and 1). The bar has been set for real gamers in terms of gameplay, graphics, story and voice acting.

Off Topic: R/C ToD is gameflyed and will be here tomorrow!

SONY EXCLUSIVES FTW!

[UltimateSin]

I wanna see what the sales were for Brutal Legend. Sleeper hit for October.

[knightdarkbox]

weak sales for game most hyped for ps3fanboys in this year..

uc2 =another overrated,overhyped game that many people will buy in bargain bin

[LordMarius]

please come back in a few hours when the Oct sales are release, I wanna see you spin

[TheBand1t]

You mean like Flopza 3's 0.67 million units sold?

lol

[LeonSKennedy4Life]

Sweet!

Still...I'm playing this AND MW2. : )

[Ashriel]

me too!

add me >:3

[Dellis]

This means shipped........

SOLD was 545K

[Sangria]

Wrong. Only Microsoft gives shipped units numbers. Sony and Nintendo provide sold units numbers.

[SoapShoes]

You have no source for the sold numbers, stop making crap up.

[Rowsdower]

mw2 than uc2

i purchased both day one but its sad to see PS3 gamers supporting 3rd party multiplats over their superior exclusives

[The Wood]

on the contrary, Uncharted games dont need to hit cod numbers for them to be a success or warrant a sequel. The 1st one has proved this plus not everybody loves 3rd person shooters like they love 1st person shooters. At least we know naughty dog worked extremely hard for every single sale. people didn't buy it in their droves off the name alone. ND had to push hard which is more than can be said of IW with mw2.. Not dismissing mw2 as im having a great time with it its just u2 pushed hard and mw2 just maintained.

[Meus Renaissance]

I thought it sold 2million copies in it's first week or something?

[dalibor]

Regardless of the sales it's been getting the game is fun. You should get it man. I am willing to bet you would like it.
