Uncharted 2 was expected to sell a lot during releases, and it did not disappoint. The game shifted approximately 836,000 units in the first week worldwide, making it the second fastest selling PlayStation 3 exclusive title, followed closely by Killzone 2 which sold about 770,000 units in launch week. The fastest selling PS3 exclusive so far remains as Metal Gear Solid 4, which managed to sell a whopping 1.7 million units in launch week, and went on to sell almost 5 million units.

The original Uncharted managed to sell 2.62 million units throughout it's lifetime, but debuted with very disappointing sales. It sold approximately 134,000 units worldwide during launch, selling only 32,000 copies in North America during launch week. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves' 836,000 sales during launch week represent an over six-fold increase in sales from the previous game.

We hope the game manages to sell as much as (if not more than) the original Uncharted, because it definitely deserves all the praise it's getting and could be the best game released this generation.
