hehe, this thread is fun...
Every other response is either funny, idiotic, sarcastic, sad, and/or blinded fanboyism.
1) LBP selling 66k on its second official week (or third unofficial week) would be ok for any other game. But this is "LBP is HUGE" we're talking about.. the same game that has been hyped to death on these forums, the same game most 360 fanboys want to play. It should of hit 1 million in its first official week, yet it might not even hit 1 million by end of year.
2) LBP is casual, calling it hardcore is... stupid. Guitar Hero is Casual, Wii Sports is Casual, Scene It! is Casual, Geometry Wars is Casual, Thumb war is Casual. If its rated "E for Everyone", then its more then likely Casual (not a rule, more of an easy measuring stick for Casual vs. Hardcore)
3) "Casual" doesn't not mean crap - I enjoy Casual games
4) New Ip's don't sell ?? - Mass Effect, Bioshock, Gears of War are all Million+ sellers and new IP's...
As anyone actually wondered why LPB sales are lower then anticipated? Like I said in #1, it should of been a million seller from week one...
