Um. You see LBP2 getting crushed by a Need For Speed game? X_x

I'm not seeing that happening unless you're counting cross platform sales. LBP has proven the series does have legs though.

It's definitely not as high on the radar yet but I'm sure the hype is going to come soon enough.


So you're saying Need for speed doesn't have a strong fanbase? The 5th best selling fanchise.Even assassin's creed, same day why ignore it? Not saying LBP 2 will do bad but they chose the worst month. Would be a better launch in October/January

You do remember what happened last December because of CoD? Heavy Rain and GoW3 and MnR and AW and RDR got delayed to launch in more calm waters (March). Which led to a big fat mess. I'm happier with the clogged Xmas because it's the time of the year when people will be willing to spend a bit more.

Also LBP legs means the game will continue selling in 2011 and beyond (unlike AC or NFS).
