Little Big Planet looks amazing. But will it be a killer app for Sony? I'm not sure. I say that because this game sort of defies the Sony demographic. People bought their ps3 and X360 to get games like Resistance, FF, metal Gear, Gundam, Halo, GT, Forza 2, Mass Effect.... This game looks like a fun family friendly kind of concept, and i clearly recall Microsoft attmepting a family fun concept that being Viva Pinata, and it failing to sell well. This game in my opinion fits more comfortably on a Nintendo console , as it seems to fit Nintendo's demographic best. Like Viva Pinata this title runs the risk of being so alone in it's genre that it one by itself shift the userbase. And in case you need another example check out Loco Roco, a brilliant innovative side scroller, that would have been better served on the DS as people already bought a DS for side-scrolling games, but instead it only sold 156,000 units on the psp in japan.(btw I know these games were developed by sony, so I'm saying the publisher was stupid not to release on Nintendo's platform, just saying they would have sold better on one)
