Some pretty unlikely predictions here. Given the game is to be bundled, it will inevitably score some fairly decent sales by default, especially given the hype and advertising this game will receive. 1 million seems a pretty easy achievement. I expect about 2 million in the first year. I wouldn't be all that surprised if it somehow reached 3 million. I'd be pretty shocked with 4.

LBP will be huge



300k? May I check you're pulse sir? Or give you a reality check?

That seems to be too off.. Regarding that it is going to be bundled and really being pushed by Sony... I don't think it's lifetime sales would be less than a million.

If you're looking for another Too Human or a new Haze go pick some other new IPs that are in troubled water.

If it reaches a million, don't tell me it's going to be a flop. :C



300 K is ridiculously low. Even Haze could do better than that!

Ban this guy. This is obviously made in poor taste with the intention to get a rise out of people.

WOW. Is it some kind of flamebait or do you REALLY think LBP will only sell 300K life time ?

LBP, in my view, is a true wild card...
Sales for this game is hard to predict and could be anywhere (but not as low as 300K LT). Who could have guessed WiiFit or Braintraining would sell so much ?
Will its fate follow SSBB's path or Okami one ? Well, only time will tell...

But... LBP is amazingly CUTE, oozing lots of fun and good humor. Sackboys & Sackgirls are adorable.
The art direction in this game is outstanding.
It's AT THE SAME TIME a party game (4 players coop offline & online), a story-driven plateformer and finally a deep creation box.
This game has A LOT of hype and already won many awards.

LBP art is NOT childish and so could appeal to a broader audience : kids, girls !!, casual gamers and creative people.
Though, what remains to be seen is if that magic will be intact as time goes and if lots of people will make the create & share part of the game a success...

SKEEZER AND NINTENDO FAN GIRL ARE MY NEMESIS

YES TO BEER

Its not gonna be the next big thing that sony fanboys hope. It will sell ok, around the million mark, but wont be a multi million seller.



-UBISOFT BOYCOTT!-

i myself wont be buying it. It seems like a babyish game, after all thats what you guys say about wii games, which are way better than LBP.

(I am not defending Ninty, I hate the wii)
