THE BUZZ: Sony has announced that Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception sold 3.8 million copies worldwide on launch day.

The PS3 exclusive’s impressive sales makes it, ”one of the best-selling titles of 2011, putting the third instalment on a clear course to be the biggest selling game in the trilogy,” according to Sony.

EGM’s TAKE: Impressive sales figures however the release of Battlefield 3 the week before, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 the week after, sandwich the game in sales so high it may end up appearing less significant.
