Forums - Sony - LBP - Perfect Bundle?

Ok, I know it's partially speculation, because obviously the game isn't out yet.  But granted the game is popular and/or is at least considered a success, would this game not be perfect to bundle with PS3's for the long term?  I'm thinking in terms of how the Wii still bundles Wii Sports..this would be the perfect game, because if it does appeal to both casual and hardcore gamers - and this is a big if, again we'll have to wait and see - then why not keep this bundled with it for the forseeable future?  Of course you'd have your periodic other-game bundle for games likes the MGS4's, maybe Uncharted 2, but I'd only expect that to be at launch for those and only last a limited amount of time.

I just miss the days of old Nintendo when you always got your Mario (whichever iteration was with that generation of console) with it, for instance.  It seems like it would provide some stability to me, I don't know.  Thoughts?

If this game isn't bundled, I will kill everyone who works at Sony's babies.



@DMJ
People at Sony don't have babies dude, they just split like amoebas.



...

This will be bundled, that would exceed sony's any respectable limit of mistakes by miles.



I will laugh if they dont bundle it. Actually laugh. I mean come on lets face it, they have made many mistakes this gen.

But, they better bundle it, or i will get upset



I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

I don't think LBP on its own could sell anywhere near as many copies as Resistance 2 or......well whatever other big games the PS3 has exclusively this holiday season.

As such, perhaps bundling the title to grow the fanbase early could be a good idea. Establish the IP etc...

That would be a classic Sony style mistake too...



i think sony are going to be stupid enough not tobundle it. they always do something to fuck up, excuse my french.

Anyway they might do though with the heavy pushing they are doing of this game



Oh.

LBP will be huge.



Its going to be really hard to convince the masses to drop $450 just because sackboy is "cute" and the game looks "fun." I really dont think this will get the casuals buying it, only due to price. Im pretty sure one 360 bundle had Viva Pinata, and did not really do much to sales.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.
