Other then this not being true, and Little Big Planet being nowhere close to Sony's "flagship ps3 game" - Stewie Dec 13, 07:39 6
- yeah, you're probably right. you need a flagship to have a flagship game.... - x Dec 13, 09:17 5
  - also, i got the 140k number from leigh alexander from gamasutra, so if there's a problem with the number then its hers.... - x Dec 13, 09:22 4
    - Oh so you were just misinformed....again - Stewie Dec 13, 09:43 3
      - i'm just saying that i'm citing numbers given by a games journalist who was in the process of reporting on the npd numbers that she gets because... - x Dec 13, 10:09 2
        
        oh, and just for good measure since you're essentially calling me a liar and saying i created this "bogus number".... - x Dec 13, 10:17 1
        
        The 141,000 number for November is correct. I've seen it on mutliple legitmate gaming sites. - Inigo Dec 13, 11:07
The game does look really cool, but I don't think it appeals to the PS3's main demographic (this is a guess). -- nm - Shaun Dec 13, 07:30 6
- i think the real problem is that there *is* no ps3 demographic! - x Dec 13, 07:34 5
  - FPS games sell very, very well. When Call of Duty 4 sells 2+ million copies in a month you can bet they'll be many more like it to follow. -- nm - krusty Dec 13, 08:41 3
    - Of course at one point, Doom and the first such FPS games could've been called "innovative." - Cuzzin the Red Nosed Todd Dec 13, 09:42
    - There are very few non sequels that sell well right away, the real number for LBP is 1.1 mil sold in 6 weeks, half that in the U.S. - Stewie Dec 13, 09:02 1
      - very good point. -- nm - krusty Dec 13, 09:39
  - If it was a Wii game, it would have sold 5x more copies, which is unfortunate, but whatever. -- nm - Shaun Dec 13, 07:36
