wot has happened to LBP. ??? any reason for such a strong resurgence.

I think it now is bundled with the PS3.

 

I have seen LBP budnle here in Sweden atleast since 1-2 week after the release date of LBP.



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Don't think LBP got an official price drop but many online retailers are selling it for £19.99.

Uh oh, things could get ugly now (the little kitty avatar is not going to like this...).

If you look at LBP sales WW, we do see that others is showing better legs than in the Americas (and NPD even showed, I think I saw, lower numbers compared to VGC). I understand that the US does not have LBP bundles. Others has had some countries with LBP bundles for a while now (at least in France, Belgium and, cough, Luxembourg, from what I saw) which could explain this.

Now it seems UK has bundles too and this could explain, at least in part, the great boost in LBP sales we have seen from the UK top 40 chart above (combined with an increase in sales of PS3 HW with Christmas approaching). However, LBP is not the only bundle available so it would be unfair to compare this to Wii Sports and we should simply praise the good numbers we should see when the SW chart is released by ioi.

Amazon UK lashed 60% off of LBP's price. They probably aren't the only retailer.

 



Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
