Little Big Planet (PS3)

Re: Little Big Planet (PS3)

I feel the same way. I'm one level (I think) away from the end of story mode, but I'm far, FAR away from being done with this game. As time goes on, more and more creative levels will get published (two of the best original one I've seen are Azure Palace and World of Color), plus I could just tool around in the level editor for hours at a time just playing with stuff. I might never publish anything, but the amount of time I could spend just fooling around might be limitless. One of the funniest things I did while messing around was balance a 1/2 level size wall of stone (and those levels are HUGE) on a tiny sackboy-size square of dark matter. Any other material and the weight of the stone just crushes it. I could even see it swaying back and forth in mid-air.

I'm also starting to replay some of the story levels online, and getting some of the 2x sticker hauls with random people. It takes a while to connect (and sometimes it doesn't connect at all) but when it works the co-op is a lot of fun.

Dang, I forgot all about story mode LOL

I have been so busy playing it online. Last night my wife said, "You never play games like that". Its true, I'm a sports gamer and shooter, but this is different and its a blast.

LOL That looks like a blast. I'll probably get this from the Mrs. as a gift.

Re: Little Big Planet (PS3)

Is that Tetris level in-game, or did somebody create it?

Re: Little Big Planet (PS3)

Someone created it.

Whoever created the tetris and space fighter levels is a genious. Amazing work. I'm going to have to play those levels today. Keep posting the good levels that you find!

How is this game, did it turn out to be any good?

I love this game. It is a nice change of pace from the usual games I play (sports, shooters, racing, etc.). The levels in story mode are awesome, and there are some incredible user-created levels as well. I'm looking forward to creating my own levels once I get through all of story mode.

It's definitely a "must-play" game IMO. The graphics and art direction are sharp, the music really fits the theme of the game, it's fun to play on your own, with friends locally, or online, and there is near limitless replay value through the created levels.

I don't know if it was just me, but I had all kinds of problems on the PSN last night with lag and getting disconnected. It seemed like my friendslist might have experienced the same thing, judging by how many of them were logging in and out. Maybe something to do with that Home beta is overstressing the network?

If you're on a router, check the manual of the game to see if any ports need to be opened. Of course, this is assuming that nothing else is wrong with PSN.

Re: Little Big Planet (PS3)

It might be something with Home or it might be that the LBP is still trying to iron out some online issues. I think they mentioned the latter somewhere in the "News" section of the game.

It had to do wtih HOME. A lot of sections weren't accessible due to server issues.
