I hope it isn’t true but LBP2 looks to be absolutely huge and if they need more time to work on it and produce a better end product then I geuss they’ll do what they have to do.

I’m not trying to start a flame war. It’s the truth.

Please do not troll or post racists remarks.
Fact of the matter is that every company is affected by delays of one kind or another including and not limited to Microsoft. The difference between MS and other publishers is that they set harsh deadlines for non AAA titles which rushes the developing process to put out an incomplete buggy game.
Looking at the last quarter of this years releases, it would make perfect sense for Sony to delay LBP2 as to not have it lost in the COD Black Ops, GT5, Castlevania swarm.

I apologize for my remarks regarding the japs, but in 2008 LBP had a rough start at the end of the quarter then sold well the following year. It was also running against COD World at War and other titles.
So I see the same happening for LBP 2. I don’t see why Sony needs to delay

“Japs” is a derogatory and insulting term and the reason your post was deleted.
LBP last year had a slow start due to the mine field of great games it went up against and probably the reason of the alleged delay for the sequel. LBP, while a great and popular game, is not as demanding as many of the popular FPS games and not many games are anywhere on the same level as GT5. Point and fact, Sony probably didn’t want to pin two of their very own AAA titles against each other.
