I think it is successful though the victim of wild hype. I want it to succeed because the PS3 is too nice a console to be used only for violent mature games. While LBP is not a children's game, it could certainly be a family game.
As long as the HD console are perceived as strictly hardcore, violent, and mature themed, their sales will be limited to a n important demographic but not a large enough one. And yes I know that there are games on the XB360 or the PS3 suitable for causual or younger gamers but that's not the perception because until LBP, none of them got the kind of promotion that would raise public awareness.
