EEDAR: Uncharted 2 Top Selling Game for the Month of October

EEDAR, a group that predicts the monthly sales of the videogame industry, have released their numbers of how many games were moved for the month of October. According to them, Sony’s exclusive adventure game Uncharted 2: Among Thieves has moved 600,000 units, making it the top selling videogame for last month. You might think these numbers are low, considering Gamestop alone had over 1.5 million reservations for Modern Warfare 2, but you need to remember — Uncharted is only available for the PS3, which is the least sold console this generation. You should also know the game started to be sold in stores almost two full weeks into October, so that’s just another reason why 600,000 is an impressive number.
Other notable top selling games were Borderlands, which is expected to have moved 300,000 copies and had very little marketing when compared to Uncharted . EA’s adventure title Brutal Legend, starring Hollywood actor Jack Black, moved about 200,000 units.
