LBP's status has come as a shock, says Media Molecule

"We had no expectation that it would become so strongly associated as a lead title on a platform," he said.
"The reveal at GDC generated the level of excitement that helped us get to where we are now. It was always our ambition to make a big game, but we didn't know if we'd succeed. The transition has been in the perception of the game, rather than in what we set out to do."
