No matter how good the game does commercially (1.3 million sold in 8 weeks), or Critically (metacritic if 95) the game will never be seen as a success. It's a shame too, since the game is so freaking awesome.
This community would rather downplay the game's success, and call the game a failure because of the hype (not the game's fault), rather than look at it on it's own merits, a new IP, which sold really well on the PS3 and has that high of a metacritic average. We'd rather look at this game as not a success, and continue playing Generic Shooter A, Madden 2020, and Traditional turned based JRPG 1,922,498, instead of praising a new IP for doing something different and what some would call innovative.
So I am never going to defend the game again, and neither should you
It's a success commercially, and critically, and that's all that matters.

I hope they give LBP a story. Because it still has nothing on Mario or any Nintendo platform. I found Donkey Kong Country to still to this day be more enjoyable.

the history of mario for the last 20years+ was to rescue the princess that it's a another castle.
and i hope you played lbp to know what the story is about who the collector is.

I feel the need to correct you slightly here, there were some Mario games which strayed away from that rescueing Peach XD.
Anyways also to add on, seeing the "LBP will be huge" threads really did start getting annoying, another reason why people won't see it as a success because it wasn't, in their eyes, "huge."
