Uncharted 2: Among Thieves was almost undoubtedly the most acclaimed video game of 2009, though its sales of roughly 4 million worldwide were not equal to this critical praise. Early indications are, however, that Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception might be among 2011’s greatest hits.
“The interest in Uncharted 3 is awe-inspiring,” said ShopTo Marketing Manager Philip Driver. “We made the game available to pre-order on the site as soon as the release date came through and literally with twenty-four hours it was already in the top ten pre-orders.”
“Pre-Orders for Uncharted 3 are still coming in every day, despite it being nearly a year away. As it stands at the moment Drake’s Deception has already outsold what is likely to be our other big title of 2011, Gears of War 3.”
