Europe Gets A LittleBigPlanet PS3 Bundle
Posted by Luke Plunkett at 6:00 PM on September 1, 2008
Sony think LittleBigPlanet will be a system-seller. And what better way to find out than with this European market LittleBigPlanet/PS3 bundle, spotted on the website of French retailer Fnac. It includes an 80GB PS3, a copy of LittleBigPlanet and a DualShock 3, and is going for €400 ($680). Fantastic box art free of charge.

@Luke Plunkett: On Xbox Live, two players got into an argument as usual. The English one told the American one to shut up and go to his "mum." The American one laughed and said it's not mum but mom, and the English one said "It's our language, I think we'd know. We laugh at you saying mom. It's mum."

Uh..the box art is really awesome. I didn't it as much as the box art for the game, but the same graphics on the huge PS3 box looks a lot cooler.
I'm still on the fence as to if LBP will sell me a PS3. I wonder if it will be a system seller.

Note for the non-Europeans: €400 (variable $585) is the normal price of the PS3 without a game, so basically it's not any more escalated as you might think.

@NeVeRMoRe666: Well to a person who never heard of LBP it may have that reaction (with the exception of the lips+tongue) and they would think it's a kiddy/girl game. And that + 500EUR is indeed a not so logical step to take for the mainstream.
But for those who know LBP, all they can see is awesomeness.
I think the main task for Sony is to market this game. Just look at how many trailers they put out. You should at least have like 4 commercials. Play (just a level, platform style but with co-op), Create (creating a level, showing the accessability), Share (showing the community aspect) and then some story commercial with Sackboy in love or some other commercial showing the broad potential. It's gonna be hard but if they get the message accross it could definitly move a lot of hardware if it picks up.

Its just me here (I know, I'm probably alone on this one), but I haven't really liked the direction of the box art or this PS3 bundle art. Its not bad per se. But to me (AND JUST ME) it looks like a 12 year old girl full of sprinkles and markers threw up all over and/or around Sackboy.
I liked the placeholder ones with the blue background and the silhouettes alot more. Its subtle and mysterious. I guess it just comes down to personal taste. I have a thing for nice, clean neat asthetics. I don't need everything and the kitchen sink to be on the cover of my game, maybe you do, but sackboy is more than enough for me.
With that said, I'm still getting this game even if it was wrapped in baby shit with used heroine needles sticking out of it.

Shame this is still the system without all the ports and stuff, otherwise this would be Relevant To My Interests.
Plus there's a 160GB model coming very soon after this in Europe, so I don't see why I'd buy an 80GB one unless I simply couldn't wait to play LBP.
However: Sony, you are getting better at this. You packed a DS3 in with European PS3s now, so that's a start. I want to buy a PS3 this year, make it easy for me!

why dont companies release custom consoles this generation that actually FEATURE the game they are bundled with. the mgs4 bundle was a close try wit the exclusive color, but it is by no means a good limited edition console cuz its only a different color. the 360 tales console only featured a faceplate, which fails cuz the sides were still bland. i wanna see a rainbow colored ps3 wit the LBP logo or something dammit.
seems like only handhelds get this treatment nowadays.

Posted 12:56 AM 2/9/08
now that is a bundle worth getting. I have to be honest when I grabbed my 60GB back in January there were 2 games I credited with "why I bought the system" - LBP and Uncharted. I just finished beating Uncharted a second time yesterday and went right back in and started it on the highest difficulty. LBP when it was shown in 2006 was intriguing, but I have to admit as it got closer and closer to completion I think it became a system seller. The community aspect alone will be something most gamers will agree is a trend in the right direction. Just like the whole "web 2.0" phenomenon this will open up developers eyes to including more community features into future games. just my 2c.

@Poisonous Taoist: I love it when people criticize someone else's grammar just to be an asshole while being wrong.
Depending on how you are using the company's name should dictate whether you are going to use it as a collective noun or a singular noun. When saying "Sony think LBP will be a system seller" you have to use it as a collective noun because a company doesn't think; the people who are a part of the company think. However, if you were saying that "Sony is one of the three major companies involved in this generation's console wars" you use it as a singular noun because you are describing the company itself.
Just remember, collective nouns are treated as plural in English. That is why you say "People think" rather than "People thinks." Now, if we were speaking in Spanish, then it would be correct that Sony should be used as a singular noun.

Little Big Planet does look fun, but it's not quite a system seller game for me. A commenter above said that Metal Gear Solid 4 should've been a system seller gamer for them - I agree. I'd rather buy a PS3 specifically for MGS4 than LBP.
The good thing about LBP is that's now 2 games exclusive games I wouldn't mind playing on the PS3. If the PS3 could get some more, I might jump on it at some point. After all, even if I don't like the games as much as I hope at least I can use it as a BluRay player. It would then have more use out of it than my launch day, waited in line for over 2 hours in the freezing cold and have barely touched it in over a year Wii. :(

@insanewookie: It has nothing to do with being lazy or greedy. Sony is publishing the game, why would they publish it for a competitors console? Same reason you wont see Gears of War on PS3, that and I believe MS owns all the rights to the franchise I think.
Exclusives are a good thing, it keeps the industry competitive and has them always trying to create more unique and innovative games. Don't be a fanboy, if you really like the game buy a PS3. It's nice to own all the consoles, that way you don't miss out on anything.

Stopped by Gamestop the other day and a couple of kids (girl looked about 8 and the boy looked 10) were getting their mom interested about the game. There were a decent amount of pre-orders for LBP made while I stood in line, too. I hope that there's a similar box for the US or at least a huge cardboard advertising the game to bring in the curious out of the loop folks.
The most that I've heard of LBP came from Kotaku or by checking out the ps3 magazine and that makes me sad.

Europe only? And I would have probably bought this too. That's right Sony, you're one bundle away from selling me on a PS3, and yet you're not going to release it in the US. Such a shame.

@jonathan.:
That's when you reply with "Yeah, I'm sure you were laughing all the way back home in the Revolutionary War." :P
Anyway, I'm sincerely jealous that the U.S. hasn't announced something like this yet. This is exactly what we need.

@Luke Plunkett: Maybe I'm just incorrect, but as far as I know, a company, entity, or anything using the word "everyone" is considered singular regardless of its number, because it's one collected organization...therefore you use "thinks" and not "think"..
And this is my opinion, but, regardless of whether the British made the language, we fixed it :] lol.

From what I've seen, LittleBigPlanet may just be the game that forces me to get a PS3.
System seller, indeed. Hopefully this bundle will make it stateside.

@budash2: How am I a troll? I said that I considered getting a PS3 because of this game, but 600 (or, $650 post game purchase) dollars for one game, no matter how good, is a little obscene.
Obviously I have to spell everything out in great detail so that those like you don't misconstrue my less direct statements.
I acknowledged it's a great game, but not a half thousand dollar game.

@Herabec:
It's not really 600 though, only when directly converted which is a no no in the tech world since everything sold in the US pretty much gets converted directly to Euros there. This is a 399 PS3 with a free game included.

@Herabec: As LittleBigPlanet said, it will no doubt be a $399 PS3 in the US, game included, if that's the European price. The normal PS3 (80 GB) costs about $600 in Europe.
