Hold it back like they should ... and get lambasted. I don't get the comments about this guy being weak or not wise at all. He is doing all the stuff Sony should have done from the beginning. Concentrate on the games, concentrate on your strengths, show stuff when it is ready. His appointment will pay huge dividends. So Sony show stuff way too early and get lambasted.

I'm sure that's exactly what it was. They knew their line-up was TOO GOOD to show to the public. They showed it privately to a few banks and look what happened there!

But he sort of gave the game away here with the final sentence... "Some time in the next year, we're going to find the right place to announce those games we haven't been able to announce." DAMNIT, TGS IS ON YOUR FUCKING FRONT DOOR! ANNOUNCE ZONE OF THE ENDERS 3 OR TEAM ICO, YOU BASTARD! =( I prefer Phil Harrison =( He may be a sharp cookie, yes.

One of them asked if I'd got it yet, as they wanted to see how it worked. From the inside looking out, I can't see how LBP is going to be a huge success at converting people to PS3, but it seems that from the outside looking in, it's quite a compelling title.

I am in the beta and i think its really a nice game but i guess im just a little bit too old for lbp (im 29 btw) and for the casual gamer i think its too complicated to create own levels or understand the game mechanics. But we will see how good it will perform... Yeah LBP is a nice game but are you really sure there is a audience for it?

Surely not XD

Right now, it’s more proof that Sony are banking on Resistance 2 and LittleBigPlanet to be a huge success compared to Fable II or Gears of War 2, most particularly LittleBigPlanet being the eggs in Sony’s basket and having a look at the link below…
