But Sony needs a big game this generation. The best selling exclusive isn't even a Sony game.



Wow Rol. You are SO on fire today.

NOT.

After playing the BETA, your thoughts are wrong. Yes LBP2 can produce FPS, and even basic 3D games but these do not compare to modern 3D games. There are good levels in the game yes, but it will never do what you think. 

 

Also, the multi-player is weak. By this I mean, the biggest genre at the moment being FPS. LBP2 cannot support multi-player first person shooters. If platformers were the king genre, then maybe LBP2 will out shadow everything else but as it stands it will just stay a good game.


You heard it here first folks. Since platforming isn't the king genre this generation LittleBigPlanet can not achieve the status of a great game, only a good game.

Only shooters can be considered great, until a shift in power that is.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)

While the OP is not meant seriously, I agree with the notion that LBP2 could become a threat to other games - provided it will be as successful as many predict or hope.

Rol's predictable comparison with Nintendo's situation is redundant though as it doesn't make sense in this case in my opinion. A better comparison would be WoW or the COD franchise which are played for a long time and assumed to have heavily cut into the possible sales of other franchises as well. If LBP2 is really a game with almost endless possibilities, it could not only cause problems for other franchises on PS3, but also for some of Sony's own franchises. For this to happen it needs to be a BIG success though, i.e. >10 million copies sold.

Why isn't anyone complaining about Starcraft 2 then?



What I want from a game.

Gameplay > Story > Content > Graphics

Visual Style > Graphics

Smooth Camera, Intuitive Controls

Friction! When everything feels right!

Being in 3rd place never felt so good

Rol, Rol, Rol your not seeing the big picture. The sales of LBP2 will be so high that it doesn't matter what the rest of Sony's first party/third party games sell at. LBP2 will make Sony billions. And why wouldn't Sony want to make money like Nintendo? That's a goal of any business find something that sells and milk the crap out of it, LBP2 real life, LBP2 4D, LBP2  remake, LBP2 the prequel. With the money Sony's going to make off this they'll be able to come out with two home consoles next gen, even if there selling at a loss the sales of LBP2 will be enough so cover there ass for years.
