October NPD prediction contest

If you haven't been able to tell from my posts on the site, I'm a big sales guy. I'm not sure if you guys are or not, but I thought this could be a fun topic - consider it a test run. If this month goes over well, I may make it a monthly thing, with prizes for the most accurate poster.

As you may(or may not) know, the North American NPD sales data is due next Thursday. Guess any 2 titles available on a Sony platform(PS2/3/P) you think will make the top 10 + how much you think they will sell, and also guess how many PS3s and PSPs were sold. Use this format(will make it easier for me to search):

Code:
[Game Title/Hardware platform] #expected
I'll lock the topic on Wednesday, feel free to edit your post until then. I'll announce the winner the next week!

September's NPD data

My guess for October:

[Uncharted 2] 650K
[Borderlands] 175K
[PS3] 350K
[PSP] 245K

-NPD covers all systems, I just said 2 PS titles 'cuz we are a PS site, though if people want we could make the contest cover more.
-NPD tracks sales from North America(US + Canada) only, and not Walmart

Anyways, I clarified the wording a little and added the September data.

Since no one guessed 2 games that made the top 10, I'll go on how far off everyone was for PS2/PS3/Uncharted 2 numbers.

I'm really, really shocked that PS3 software was so bad, outside of Uncharted. I mean, Borderlands hits 450K on the 360 and not even 150K on PS3? And no Ratchet either?

And the results are in. For clarification, all I did was take every ones Uncharted 2/PS3/PSP predictions and added them togehter and compared to the combined sum of the actual numbers.

Shak - 1210 units off
Nick - 1245 units off
X_Racer1 - 1350 units off
Dipchit - 1370 units off
Dustin - 1446 units off
Trediddy - 1490 units off
