Sony hyped this game beyond belief as did their legions of fanboys. Months and even years before it was released, the game was repeatedly & almost endlessly touted as "system seller" by the Sony elite at CES and E3 conferences. Littlebigplanet was forced upon the public by the Sony PR Czars. In every interview regardless of relevance, they would mention "littlebigplanet" and how would outsell GT5 Prologue and shift hardware. Well my friends the day of reckoning is upon us and the results are clear. Highly rated game, HUGE Marketing push & average sales. However, it was an expectatins flop because Sony tried to convince us it would be the second coming.
