The PS3 is being retargeted as a family platform for when the PS4 is out so this fits with that strategy.
Yeah, fits with the strategy well. It would allow Sony to continue to push ps3 as a family device, though who knows how successful that effort has been so far. I imagine not very! As long as mm is doing something else.
If that's the case then I hope they drop the price to $150 this fall and not make an obscenely priced (for families) PS3 bundle with this game and Move and sell it for $400.Like others have said, Sony is positioning the PS3 as a family system as they move the hardcore on to the PS4. Any LBP at this point would do better on PS3 with its larger and more diverse install base.
A $400 bundle to entice families would be hilarious. I want to say that it would make sense for them to finally drop the price really low but neither Sony or Microsoft have dropped their respective console's price by more than $50 this generation. A drop to anything under $180 would be refreshing.If that's the case then I hope they drop the price to $150 this fall and not make an obscenely priced (for families) bundle with this game and Move and sell it for $400.

So is Sega All Star Tennis featuring Sonic & Friends and every other project Sega has given them.
I'd be surprised if this sells well on PS3 compared to the past games. If they are making a new one, get rid of the floaty physics which seem to turn a lot of people off and put it on PS4. It will lure a lot of the LBP community over and the new console with have a platformer right off the bat.
They usually do a price drop at Gamescom but this'll do,they need to set the entry price point lower for this 'family' strategy to work.I've heard suggestions that point to price cuts around E3.
Why can't they sell the 12GB PS3 for $150 and then another SKU @ $199?No way they drop the price to $150.
Its going to be $200.

They have to kill backwards compatibility if they want to change the jump physics. There's an argument for it; just depends on how Sony feels about splitting the user base.
Please.
Fix the goddamn physics.
As long as they don't waste yet another conference on this crap IP. It seems to infect its way into each conference Sony does in some way.

I really do not like this franchise.
physics and overtly kawaii visuals is the main reason. I wish sony would drop it
Man, I liked LBP but it really doesn't feel like time for another one yet.
The Vita version is really good though.
First time hearing anything about "death threats" or "hacking" in LBP. Didn't know it was such a cut-throat world.
It has the same floaty physics though the controls are a bit tighter.So I've been told and since it wasn't MM making it I am probably going to get it eventually. Just waiting for the right price.
Hey, another thread full of people that want LittleBigPlanet to be a completely unrelated game, instead of just ignoring it.
And I have yet to play a LBP title >. <
Don't worry, with the sales of LittleBigPlanet 2 and Vita not even coming close to the sales of their predecessors, I see the LittleBigPlanet series being put to rest for a long time if the next one tanks even harder.
The first one wasn't that good but the second one was wicked. I played the whole game co-op with a buddy and it was a blast.
3D platformer or bust.
LittleBigPlanet is one tweak (jumping) and a little polish around the edges of the physics engine away from being able to be argued as the best platformer out there.
Who in their right mind would argue that... LBP is an excellent creation tool, without a doubt the most accessible and versatile tool on consoles period. It's also a hilarious 4-player game, especially when you're stoned. But as a platformer it falls flat on its face and gets trampled over by every single Mario platformer out there, it's not even a contest. Fixing the jumping won't fix that.
