Two of last year’s biggest PS3 releases have wowed gamers and critics alike, but have they wowed retail? According to the NPD Group, who has released the launch-to-date sales of LittleBigPlanet and Metal Gear Solid 4, the two games have.

LBP managed to sell 611,000 copies in the US since its release in October. Meanwhile, Resistance 2, which came out in November, has sold 598,000 copies since launch.

MGS 4, released to much critical acclaim, managed to sneak over 1 million copies to US homes last year. Almost 75% of its sales happened during the month of June – when it was launched – with the rest coming in the second half of the year.
