@oznerol, I disagree about LittleBigPlanet not being a casual game. I believe it is one of those games that appeals to all types of gamers. Those less adept at playing games will enjoy the basic gameplay, playing multiplayer at home and/or online, and checking out levels people have created.
Those more into gaming will also enjoy this but will flesh out their experience by creating levels. Some will create a small amount and/or simple levels while others will create truly impressive spectacles. Some gamers may even prefer to spend their time almost doing nothing but creating levels.
From what I've read from gaming journalists they have said this game is appealing to all types of gamers. I think LBP will have a very significant long tail as less 'hardcore' gamers learn about it and/or get to play it.
