Not trying to sound like a jerk, but I thought in a few threads I read the other day people said LBP only sells in Europe because of bundles?

Sorry to hear you could not find it though, excellent game. It deserves to be sold out.

Yeah, that was a fun thread.



i got the last copy in a whole retail chain in my country.

had to drive an hour to get it =(.

every store i go it's always sold out!



@ jo: at least you'll be able to enjoy it now :)

Why are you still here? GO PLAY!



LIES!!!

LBP SELLS BECAUSE ITS $10 , AND ITS BUNDLED EVERYWHERE, ITS NOT SELLING BECAUSE PEOPLE WANT IT!!!!

At about 6 o'clock in the morning of boxing day, I smoke a fat joint with my friends and head over to future shop. The store was already packed by the time we got there and most people were pushing and shoving just to get to what they wanted. Things go pretty smooth; One of my friends buys a 42" LCDTV along with a new 360. With the 360 he gets the two bundled games as well as Assassins Creed and Gears of War for 20 dollars a pop. Another friend finally grabs himself a dualshock 3 and wireless USB keyboard.

But me? I'm not getting anything yet. I have my eyes on Little Big Planet. Yes I have already played this game to death with my friends. I have finished the campaign, but there is no way I'm missing out on buying my own copy. Future shop has it for 59.99. I tell myself there is no way I am buying it at that price. Why? I find an HMV flyer saying they have LBP, Gears of War 2 and Prince of Persia for 29.99. By the time we reach HMV, the place has been open for 20 minutes already. Little Big Planet is already sold out. Guy says it took no more than 5 minutes to get rid of their 14 copies. I'm kindof cheesed at this point but it's all good cause I got PoP and UTIII for 40 dollars combined. Four hours and  7 HMV's later, I finally quit. This game is flying of the shelf like hotcakes. My friend couldn't understand because he got his copy of Gears 2 at like the third HMV.

Now I am sitting at home with this blank stare on my face.

I wouldn't call 14 copies of LBP flying off of a shelf selling like hotcakes.

 



At least LBP is selling! Woo!



I hope my 360 doesn't RRoD

@ stage: selling all 14 within 5 minutes is "slow" then?



i had the same problem
i couldn't find a copy of mortal combat vs Dc universe ( it was 39 bucks)
but i got the eye of judgment for 29 bucks
and guitar hero 3(legend of rocks) with 2 guitars for 59 bucks
and prince of Persia for 29 bucks

by the way my friend was the first in line to get lbp (at HMV)and he got 2 one for himself and one to give his brother for his birthday :)
