LBP on PC? Got to be mistake!

Archive: 20 posts


Kotaku: LBP on PC link (http://kotaku.com/5034088/)


Well, personally I think this is either a store error or Photoshop'd fake.... and for Sony's sake it better be. I have been reading a lot of forum posts around the net and they seem to be spit between happy and mad. Unfortunately the happy posters are assuming better level creation tools on PC and a product more open to mods. Fist off, sure computers are easier to create with but only because of the mouse/digipen and second there will be no mods. If this were true (and like I said... without official confirmation it's foolish to think) the product for both platforms would have to be balanced and that couldn't properly be done. Not only that, PC opens the doors to cracks, cheats, and other devices that can only harm the game. Not only would this be the biggest blunder on Sony's behalf but also yet another large missed opportunity for exclusive PS3 sales. Would "Super Mario" be such an enormous hit for Nintendo console sales if it was released also on PC...absolutely not.

But this is a DISPLAY box, they all just have the logo on them.

i don't think so, cuz they wanna pump as much of the game on the case as they can, so people just checking games out will be intrested right away and wanna pre order...

lets say you never heard of lbp, and you walked inot gamestop, and just saw a very plain box just say littlebigplanet... you might me slightly intrested becuase of the titel, but you definitly would not pre-order it that day... now if they had sackboy on the cover doing funny or cool things, and some levels, and their play create share saying, and all the good stuff, theres a good chance you could pre order it on the spot...

as a business move, giving empty boxes is pretty much a waste of money, thats valuable advertising space they could be using
