Flops Aplenty!

LBP is not bombing and does not deserve to bomb. It was different in the beta as it was not publicly avaliable, so they can do what they want. When it enters the public sphere other companies have copyrights on their IPs, so they control the IPs, Sony has no choice put to pull the levels or face being sued, what else do you expect. You think that because MM has had to do some moderating to stop Sony from being sued you want it to fail.... that does not make sense

As said, do not forget Uncharted, it sold 25k last week, and let's hope MS PR and LBP will do as well as it has done, and LBP has already sold 700k, at this point Uncharted had sold about 200k. We are using the Uncharted argument, because Uncharted spread due to word of mouth because it is so incredibly good, and the same thing will happen with these games. I have a feeling MS PR is going to do well around christmas as with NFS being so bad again this year, people may get MS PR as their racer, especially as it corrected all the faults of the original

@ nordlead, about the comment that MS would have only sold 750k without bundling. While it may be true that if it had not been a launch game in EU it might have suffered, firstly it has only sold 0.03m more the US than others, though it was bundled for a short time there, but not with every console or in every country.

Just look at this graph to see that it had already reached 1m before bundling in the US.
