I love LBP and I love LBP3! Really love the idea of HUgh Laurie playing the bad guy in the game. Hopefully Sony will start to create some buzz around the game soon.

Little Big Planet... eww.

I'm pretty excited about it, but as others have said it's the competition that's hurting it. Being cross gen I can see it selling on par with LBP2, but from what I've seen so far I think this is going to be a game that deserves better.



I'm a little interested, I just went back to the first to finish up a few trophies
the second I had rented when psn was hacked and down for a long time so didn't get as into it. I've had it from plus for a long time now just haven't gotten back to it
the game on the psp and vita were also fun
I'll probably check it out at some point, though my biggest issue with the series is the create related trophies, causing people to make all the P4P H4H trophy levels instead of trying to make levels that would be fun or interesting.

Sony focus marketing on their next big release (inc their co-marketing third party games)

Before september they focused on Destiny.
About a week or 2 after destiny they focused on driveclub.
Driveclub will have its time then it will be time for two new marketing campaigns.
Littlebigplanet and GTA V.

No point advertising a game too early, where people will eventually forget about it.

Actually in some ways Sony is giving this game more attention than you'd think, for example both the E3 and Gamescom trailer have obviously been featured on the Playstation Youtube Channel page for quite some time, which can be seen from the view count to ratings ratio.

E3 trailer: 4.1 million views to 12.5k thumbs up

Gamescom trailer: 3.1 million views to 2.8k thumbs up

Compared to the UC4 trailer, which was actually massively hyped

5.8 million views to 45.6k thumbs up

So Sony is doing some work at least.



I think so. It will all depend if this new title can feel like its own one and not just an expansion of LBP2. I think above 80 meta is a guaranteed. I'm sure I will love it no matter what the case

My most hyped game for the year along with SSB



My colleague bought a PS4 recently, she's been mostly out of gaming since the days of Age of Empires. LBP3 is one of THE games she's most hyped about.

There, you have it. ;)



I'm sure it will sell great and review well. The internet isn't too hyped over it for whatever reason.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!
