October 2009 was a pretty good month for gamers, with the release of new IP’s like Brutal Legend and Borderlands. Each console also had its own exclusive title; Wii had Wii Fit Plus, Xbox 360 had Forza 3, and the biggest release this month, exclusively on the PS3, Uncharted 2. With the price cuts still fairly new in the market, can Sony still maintain the lead this fall?
Well Sony had its top spot for a month, but the Wii is back on top. PS3 managed to outsell Xbox 360’s which is what Sony wants most. Now to the software, Uncharted 2 managed to take the number one spot selling 537K. While we’re still enjoying Uncharted 2, 441K people are working out thanks to Wii Fit Plus. At number three is Borderlands on the Xbox 360 which sold a very impressive 418K despite analyst predicting the game to flop. The sleeper hit is here. Halo 3: ODST managed to sell another 271K, a little low for the second month of Halo but it sold its mil considering its an expansion. Forza 3 came in at number eight with 175K sold in just about a week. That’s all I care to point out…..oh wait. Where’s Brutal Legend? Another flop for Mr. Tim Schaffer it seems, we’ll have to see the top 20.

Damn uncharted shoulda did way more, but at least its number one. wow at fifa charting over brutal legends in NA.
Brutal Legend Was Bound To Flopp I Thought It Was Another Version Of Rockband Or Suttin Untill I Seen It At EurOGAMER And Its A Good Game But Uncharted Was A Shocking Number Dammmm PS3 People Only Want It For Show
FLOPZA 3….
NBA LIVE has officially is DEAD LOL!
175K in 5 days for Forza 3. Not a flop, try again.
U MAD Edward?, face it is FLOPZA 3 son…..
You’re bringing up the days excuse but check it, that joint should
had done 300K in 3 days. Isn’t it the “defining racing game of this
generation”?, how can it sell 175k in 5 days?, shits weak kid face it
turn 10 were not supported like they should had been.
If GT5 sales that in the USA it will also be called a flop by me, so don’t get it twisted, Forza 3 probably did worst then Forza 2 in 5 days
not sure about that but I wouldn’t be surprised at all.
wasnt nba live cheaper??? lol
nah same price, its pretty shocking that joint didn’t chart on neither of the consoles, 360/PS3 NBA fans were not fucking with it at all people were done trying to give EA another chance.
See Swiff, I told you about your lack of faith! lol
even I thought Wii Fit would outsell Uncharted though, congrats to Naughty Dog
