@Gaara42, I must say I dissagree: while gaming categories might put both in 'action' mentally they fall completelly differently: Ratchett feels for kids, with Pixar type appeal, while Uncharted has adult characters. For me neither Lair nor Heavenly Sword felt adult oriented, both felt a lot more for a younger audience. I'm not saying I have an idea how this will affect sales... i'm just saying.
One thing that worries me, especially reading a recent moderator post about taking off older titles because first 3 months of data accurately predict: trading might stop, but for games like Uncharted and Ratchett I expect to hit big numbers because of install base and bundles 6-12 months from now. Countries getting bundles, platinum collections, price drops: for a long time IMO to come they will be recomended by PS3 owners to new ones as definitory exclusives so that I think will account for a lot.
