LittleBigPlanet Will Shift PS3s, Sony Say/Hope

LittleBigPlanet has every one of us excited. And no doubt many of you as well. But what about the average punter, who doesn’t even own a PS3? Sony reckon it’ll get them excited too, and so damn excited they’ll want to rush out and buy the console just to play the game. Associate Producer Eric Fong:

It’s going to be a hardware seller. Not only do you have the platforming experience that a lot of other games will have, you have this creativity that really is exclusive to LittleBigPlanet.

Hmm. Can’t help but wonder whether the console’s still a liiiitle bit too expensive for a game as “accessible” as LBP to really shift hardware. Maybe in a year or so! No reason it can’t be a slow-burning system seller, like that other Sony game, SingStar.
