This is always a tricky one for me. It's like asking me should the same amount of people who watched Transformers watch, say, Moon. I'd say yes, because they're missing the better film, but really is it fair to make that kind of claim?
I think LBP, Uncharted, etc. sold well for new IP and given their focus in the current market. Uncharted was SP only, early in PS3's life and there was a lot of 'it's just a Bloke Raider copy cat' stuff going around. LBP was cute, challenging with it's creation tools and rewarding of patience.
This at a time when the PS3 was selling to mainly the same demographic as 360 and the sure fire titles were all mature, gritty and featuring good online.
Would I like to see them sell better? Sure, LBP is arguably the most inovative and original game this generation for example. But do they deserve it as though owed something? It's tempting to say yes, but I think that's trying to force people to have different tastes.
To me low sales would be something like Ico or Beyond Good & Evil. Great titles, great reviews, low sales. I still don't get why more gamers didn't want to play those titles.
So I'll say no, although of course I'd love to see a world where LBP outsold something like MW2. To me, that would be quite a hoot and give me a warmer feeling about our basic human nature.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
