I'm game, as long as they keep it easy. The LBP level editor was simple, and that's what good design is all about.
LittleBigPlanet 2 Changes the Game by Letting You Design It
- Thread starter Tom Goldman
- Start date
I've said it before, while I may have LOVED the original LBP, I unfortunately didn't play as much of it as I thought I would. The main reason is that I had no idea what to do with the level editor as there were just too many possibilities and not enough direction with what you could do with those possibilities.
A game like ModNationRacers benefits from being able to create one major thing; race tracks. This allows people to be more creative in a more direct fashion. LBP didn't really have that and I think it suffered because of that (endless supply of crap levels).
That being said, I'm going to buy LBP2 regardless of what the level creation is going to be since I feel that I have a personal obligation to support Media Molecule.
Well, that and Sackboy is way too adorable not to do what he says.

I'm less excited about the game, but that QR code thing is pretty damn exciting. Imagine hiding those in pictures, or as specifically designed textures in portraits, using them for all kinds of secretive means. Imagine the kinds of things you could hide, for someone else to find out, if they knew how.
What do you get from your Xbox360 though?spinFX said:
Personally I'm not enormously happy with my PS3 purchase (I definitely would not be with an Xbox either, though its atleast cheaper), it just hasn't really been particularly worth it when considering the money spent, though I did greatly enjoy LBP. With the second one maybe I will finally appreciate it.
Sounds quite fun, just hope they aren't crossing the barrier between amateur level developer to nutjob over-zealous hobby-fanatic developer. Of course the title doesn't apply to those who get Paid doing that.
If QR code is what I think it is...
Then we are in for some interesting times.

Twenty years from now it will be revealed the CIA used LBP2 to convey messages out of enemy territory. And they had fun doing it.BehattedWanderer said:

The thing I see, and remember this is my opinion and not flame-bait, is that the best combination to have these days is a gaming PC and a PS3. Most "exclusives" on 360 come out on PC, multiplatforms are just better to get on PC if you can, which leaves any kind of home console to be bought based on exclusives. And seeing as a lot of 360 "exclusives" come out on PC and are better on that platform, PS3 seems the way to go.spinFX said:
Yeah, that's completely off topic. On topic, LBP2 sounds awesome. I'm sure some people who've sunk heaps of money into the first one's DLC will be glad to hear it all carries over. It's nice to see they're innovating rather than just refining the first's base design. As far as flexibility goes, I'm sure LBP2 will be the best there is. Although for PC, SC2 will be king. I'm considering getting that solely for the custom games.
I wonder how long until someone uses it to remake the first LBP, but with Dicks Leprechauns (And Leperchauns for the lesser enemies).
I, for one, would probably make a game that blows itself up.
Not just a stage, an entire game.

You got one working? Mine just spun around until the game started to lag.thenumberthirteen said:
I agree. PS3 and a PC combined guarantees you the most exclusives. Quality of exclusives though, completely opinion based here: I like the 360 more INITIALLY. Considering the "exclusives" keep popping up on PC I might just go ahead and say over all PS3 wins.Mr. Mike said:
If I had to choose just 1 console and couldn't afford a PC, I'd go 360 though
Anyways I don't mean to drag this so far off topic. Only poor people who can't afford multiple platforms need to argue over which console is best
Well it wasn't a complete success. I made a basket to sit in, and a balloon out of pink floaty stuff. It had a tendency to fly away uncontrollably so I stuck rockets on switches to it. One for up, and one for down. I wouldn't dare leave the house if one of those really existed.TheNumber1Zero said:
So basically they made Klik & Play
...all right. Not sure it's really that amazement-worthy but I guess time will tell.

Why didn't you use the actual balloons?thenumberthirteen said:
