Little Big Planet Versus Fable 2

In my opinion Fable 2 will have bigger initial sales (especially because it's not a new IP and therefore already has fans who will pre-order it), but if LBP receives the tremendous word of mouth I am expecting, it might fly by Fable2s sales in 2009.

From a scores perspective the games should be in a ~5% range of each other .. well, if both games show they are as good as the hype wants them to be that is.

 

I totally agree with this.  Fable 2 will outsell LBP out of the gate, but then it all depends on legs - which will depend on reviews and word-of-mouth.  There's no doubt Fable 2 will sell better at first, with the hype and it being a sequel versus new IP, plus with the install advantage.  There's a lot of preorders for it, judging from the number of people playing the Pub Games. 

I will be buying one of each, so my votes will cancel each other out  :)
