Forums - Sony - Yoshida: "LBP to be PS3's biggest title this year" - Yep even in Japan

HanzoTheRazor on 01 September 2008

If u cannot see it commin'... your blind!

Biggest and most important game this year. LBP will have long legs into Xmas 2009. Word of mouth is key for this puppy, cause LBP is what all people are gonna talk about once it's released.



Playing and finishing games first>>>>>>>>>>Then talking!

Are they talking exclusive only? Last I checked MGS4 wasn't the PS3's biggest selling game this year...

Either way, they must be expecting massive sales in order to pass even the second best selling game this year. I'm personally not sold LBP'll be able to do it, but hey - I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt.

 

 We're talking about Japan where GTA4 hasn't been released yet and even when it is released it won't have a huge amount of sales there.

Well it is one of the biggest western franchises in Japan, granted that isn't saying much lol.

I think it will be huge if they advertise it right, and from what sony themselves are saying it seems that they plan to advertise it big, I can see that putting disney characters not only in trailers but in TV ads and billboards and such will really help this game's sales.

The hype train for this game is pretty much out of control. I doubt it's even possible for this game to satisfy some people's expectations.

Can't say I disagree.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

LBP will outsell GTA IV and MGS 4 combined times 20. It's well known that Nintendo is now shifting it forces toward the greeting card business out of fear. LBP will be HUGE.

HYPE confirmed.

it totally killed me with the last trailer "hello, i'm sackboy" totally had me wanting that GAME now.

I don't know about Japan, MGS4 will probably be the PS3's biggest game there until FF13 but for others and hopefully the US it will probably be the biggest.
