internet hype =/= mass market hype.
if you think that causal market, the one that is defined by the fact they don't dedicated their time to video games and thus are uneducated about industry as a whole, are going to even be aware of LBP then you are mistaken. until the ps3 is featured on things like oprah, good morning america, the local nightly news like the wii is...the ps3 has no hope of out casualing the wii and taking that market. LBP will sell mostly to the 1.88M people that got stoked from Uncharted.
