Your kinda missing my point...
what i ment was, if LBP was on both consoles and not just a Sony first party. The sales imo would be more than double what they are now if there was an xbox bundle. Simply because of the amount of xboxes sold through the holidays. and lets face it... LBP wasnt advertised that well, and we all know what microsoft do with advertisements.

 

That case could be made for ALL games.  Let's make all games multiplat and have MS heavily bundle every one.

 I think VP was bundles a lot. It's sequel, VP2, wasn't that successful. I haven't played VP, don't know how good it is.

 So was LBP. Do you remember win the Wii trolls were using the exact same arguement for why LBP would flop and should be ported to the Wii? A good game that is well marketed will sell regardless of the "art stlye." Hell I know at least one guy who never touchesy the cutesy crap would picked it up because it sounded fun. A good game will sell well regardless of platform.

 

 Oh come on! LBP was not bundled to the extent VP was. It was just an official bundle, not a praticaly forced bundle like VP, Kung Fu Panda, Indiana Jones, Motorstorm (a couple of months back). I like to think that a good game sells well regardless of platform, but this just isn't the case. Look at Valkyria Chronicles and No more Heroes. 

It is just a intuative belief that LBP wouldn't have sold as well if it was a Wii or 360 exclusive. I can not prove this. For that I am very sorry.

On the 360? No. To cutsy for the 360 user base. Playstation user base far more accepting for this game.

Wii. Yes, if exactly the same game came out for Wii, it would sell more on Wii. But the Wii's outstandingly bad online, makes a game like this impossible to release on Wii.

Now your being odd... as what i actually meant was an answer to this post. also giving my original answer including the games like VP, maybe now youll see my point?

Here's my two cents.

I played it for half an hour and hated it.

I played it for another hour, and now I love it.

Give the game a chance. You won't like it at first, but given time, once you get used to it, you'll think it's awesome.
