JamesOct 25, 2008Ah fanboys, trust them to provide an objective score for a game... NOT 6.2 wtf?? I really rate this game about a 93 but I'm giving it a 10 to try even out the odds a little. Go back to playing XBOX and stop rating games you can't even play...
-
-
JacksonK.Oct 25, 2008Why does this have a score of 6.2? Once of the most original games I've ever played as well as one of the best ones. Should be at least a 9.3

-
CliffL.Oct 25, 2008Wow it is like the single player mode from smash brothers on the GC - what is the point in 2008? i wanna play games that have nice graphics and new gamplay - or massive guns and chainsaws.

SteveDOct 25, 2008Awesome game. Best platformer ive played in a LONG time. The online community makes this game have endless replay value.

TD.Oct 25, 2008This game is the absolutely the dumbest idea ever. Besides the 10% of gamers who actually have the time to waste to create levels, no one will play this game. All it is, is a stupid old washed up platformer! This game blows!!!

BoyGeorgeOct 25, 2008Seriously the best game I've ever played. Great platforming elements, but what is really cool is the level creator, with near endless possibilities, this game will be a medium for the creative minds. The world is leveled (well at least for those with a ps3 and this game), and no longer shall geography separate the bright minds from each other. This game is totally amazing.

-
EBOct 25, 2008This game is awesome! Too bad we have a bunch of bitches giving this game a low score. You guys need to grow up, seriously. Because the game got pushed back a week you are giving it a bad score? Come on. I repeat you guys are bitches, to whom ever gave it a bad score to pull the rating down. Same goes for GOW2.
-
-
DmytrykD.Oct 25, 2008Slick all through but that's not saying much since there is so little gameplay unless you take about a weeks work of building level only to see yourself play through your own penbox. Except there's little fun to be had since you build it.
-
-
MaciejB.Oct 25, 2008This is the most exciting platformer ever and the creation and sharing feature is the first true 3.0, user generated content implementation of the next gen!!! Great visuals, sound, physics, and mostly it's just plain fun and cutesy and good for the whole family!!!

VladmirM.Oct 25, 2008This game is fantastic. This is my opinion, and if you disagree with it than I respect that. Anyway, if you like platformers than you should enjoy this. LittleBigPlanet is a game where you can create a level, send it to a database, and also download other levels. Some are really creative and that is, in a nutshell, why I love this game.
-
-
EricH.Oct 25, 2008Got an early copy from Target! I can't stop playing this game, more specifically the level editor. There is so much potential and it just blows my mind how creative it lets you be. There is tons to do and create; I think this game is taking gaming in a whole new direction.
-
-
MarkK.Oct 24, 2008I played the beta and was immediately hooked! I don't know if I'll design my own levels, but I really loved seeing what others can do. I think this game is infinitely replayable. Some of the levels were buggy or had problems, but as people learn the game, they'll get better and better.
-
-
ChrisB.Oct 24, 2008Excellent side scrolling platformer! Its a must buy if you own a PS3. Its a build and share your own platforming game. You or friends create and share stages. Your able to play then with friends online and rate other user created stages you've played. Only complaint I have is dealing with the 3d'ish movement to the fore or aft of the screen can be a little annoying.
-
-
TylerD.Oct 24, 2008This game I found to be really disappointing, the actual game play is horrible, if you are into the whole make your own levels then this is cool but if you just want to sit down and play this game is pretty mediocre. You'd be better off buying Viva Pinata, now that's a good game.
-
-
MarkyMarkOct 24, 2008The game is a bit too much childish. All you do is create scrolling level and not fully 3-d and on top of that, the controls for the charcater is floaty. Don not buy this lame level creator, buy a true game creator for your PC to actually create something worth playing.

AnonymousMCOct 24, 2008I was in the beta and even though I don't care much for LBP I was blown away when I saw that this game has something that games have been missing for a long time and that is genuine innocence.I'm glad that most of the reviewers caught this while reviewing the game.
-
-
INggaSaproonaOct 24, 2008This is by far one of the most creative if the not the MOST CREATIVE game ive played all my life. ONe game that would definitely set the ps3 apart from the other consoles. Although it is arguably the Best Game for the Ps3, one can say that it is the best reason to buy one.

RickS.Oct 23, 2008Having been testing the game for the last month or so i have to say im disapointed. Being a game tested i do not normally comment on games as i go through so many in the year but this one was especially poor, very unoriginial game play and long long load times. Menus were difficult to get around and the game lacked any kind of luster. My suggestion is to buy an xbox360.
-
-
FrankieM.Oct 23, 2008I was so excited for this game before the release. REALLY EXCITED, but when I bought it I knew the game was extremely over hyped. The game had clunky controls, my PS3 could barely play it because it lagged alot, the music sucked, and it crashed a couple times. I cannot believe I actually bought this shit, dont buy it, just save your money for a good game.
-
-
DavidD.Oct 23, 2008The game sucks, its too hard to make own levels and campaign is over in less than 10 hours. Very basic platforming. This game should have been made in the Snes era becuz its features fall in that context.

PaulM.Oct 23, 2008Flat out fun. rusty, sure. short, oh yes. but undeniably fun as hell. especially with a friend or significant other. the Wife Approval Factor of LBP is perhaps the highest of any console game since Wii Sports. and all this is without ever having taken the game online.

HarryJ.Oct 23, 2008The first time you play it or see it, it impress a lot, the "infinite posibilities", but thats all. It gets really boring if we assume that everybody is not a born level creator, without the level creator it sucks. the game is pretty, but i dont think it deserves a perfect score.
-
-
JackJ.Oct 23, 2008A huge disappointment in my imo, and what happens? Everybody on the web posts a review of at least a score of 8 just because everybody else reviewed this game good. This is just like MGS4 (which was a great game), it also happened with Haze, if IGN gave the game a good rating, everybody else whould have kissed up to them.

-
-
EDWARDGOct 23, 2008I played the BETA of this game and if it were released the way it was it would get a 10 out of 10 from me. The game is amazing and has unlimited potential. As a father who games, with kids who game, this is the perfect platform for us to enjoy together. Thank you MediaMolecule.

-
-
ChrisC.Oct 22, 2008Amazingly fun game. Creation is very deep and will let you do almost anything you can imagine if you spend the time. Online in the beta was really well thought out and it seems the final version will be the same. The only bad thing about it is the delay, which fortunately I got around.
-
-
TomJ.Oct 22, 2008Good game if you want to make levels within a confined environment. garbage if you just want to play a game. the 50 included levels offer no continuity, even mario and sonic back in the day had a small underlying story. i think this game is great for casuals, but overall its a step backwards in gaming.
-
-
BrandonCOct 22, 2008wow a 6 for a user rating.Definitely the work of fanboys.2000 votes and its not even released.Yea,Xbox fanboys must be shitting their pants if their gonna rate LBP that way.Don't worry,this is only your second loss.Socom was your first,wait till Resistance2 owns your beloved Gears series.Then we'll see the scores you give that.

GordonJ.Oct 22, 2008I managed to get one of the 'recalled' games. The physics is terrible. You can barely jump. Since this game is basically a platformer, and the jumping is nearly broken, I am extremely disappointed. They say they are working on a patch, well great, I've already played the game. Thanks a whole bunch.

michaeldunniganOct 21, 2008i played the beta and i have to say it was amazing. this game uses all of the features that are available on the ps3, including the motion controls and playstatioin eye camera. it was also so much fun to play the story mode and the online mode. the user-created levels are simply fabulous.

PatrickDolanOct 19, 2008It has a couple of minor flaws, but the overall scope & vision of this game make it one of the most impressive titles on the market, and quite possibly a new classic.
And FWIW, this is coming from a guy who rates the PS3 as the worst choice of the big three consoles, so I'm not just being a fanboy... :) -

I have no idea why this game is voted so low on here, maybe just the xbots fans voting it negatively!!! ahahaha jealousy is a disease!!!

CyrilleM.Oct 17, 2008I haven't played the game yet, as many of the voters here. So my rating is to adjust and balance the average rating that can only be wrong at this time. By what I heard, I'm pretty sure that the game is one of the best of the year, but I can't tell more.

gRANTlYNNOct 16, 2008Not fun - i have done this all before and its so fiddly - no competition and kinda sick of it already. boring for players unless youre a wannabe game designer- lame childish noises and characters with craptastic direction. A luvvies hype machine but a waste of time and money for regular consumers -

-
-
DustinW.Oct 15, 2008One of the best developed games i have ever played in my 20 years of gaming. I think the initial level designs are brilliant and the create portion of this game will keep the community alive, growing and happy.
-
-
JenniferR.Oct 15, 2008This is absolutely the most fun I have had on a console in the last decade. LittleBigPlanet is childlike joy incarnate; pure blue-sky fun of the kind we have not seen in years. This is the game I have waited for my entire life.
-
-
MarkB.Oct 15, 2008This game is absolutely brilliant; from gorgeous graphics, to well-done physics, to beautiful pre-made levels (over 60!), to the youtube-like tagging and sharing of levels, to the Create mode used to create virtually anything imaginable, this game is a winner that comes closer to perfection than any other console game before it.
-
-
DonnyH.Oct 15, 2008This merely a simple game, it can only jump around, making face and expression.. the fact that this game give the player a tools kit to make a level does not make this a game deserve a 10 score.. for me this is a mediocre game.
-
-
BenB.Oct 15, 2008After playing the beta, I've got to say this game is great. Might be the best game I've ever played. Why is it a 5.9? Some 360 fanboys got to this, it looks like.
-
-
gold5225goldOct 15, 2008This is the most innovative and outstanfding game ever made if you review this game bad your a 360 fanboy if you try this game you will love it i recomend that everyone buy this game i played the beta and i just love this game soo much.

AlbertoRamisOct 15, 2008Es el mejor juego que he visto en años a nivel de innovacion y de diversion. Desde luego se nota que los americanos sois todos unos boxers cerrados¬¬. Tuve a la beta y desde luego es increible lo que hace la gente con los niveles. Y se supone que lo mejor es el editor, que no me dio tiempo a ver del vicio que llevaba :P
-
-
HiamM.Oct 15, 2008I had the privilege of previewing this game a few days ago, and all I can say is that is like NOTHING you have ever played before. The integration of game development into user gameplay is genius and will keep you playing for a very long time. Great great value. Uniqueness at it's best.

AReviewerOct 15, 2008I'm in the beta; great so far, and all previews and reviews suggest the full release will be even better. It's extremely disheartening to see bitter 360 fanboys out in force to lower the rating for such a great game. Any rating below an 8 is made by a fanboy of a rival console who has never played the game, and has no intention to.

TriDaoOct 14, 2008This is a 2D platformer than you can play offline or online or a mix between the two. You can also create your own levels using simple but deep tools and then share it with the community. The community will then rate your level and you can be featured on the weekly/monthly/daily top 10 charts!

joshualozanoOct 14, 2008The games slow pace is not for me. 2D side scrollers should not be $60 and the user created maps are all too similar.
There are NO real enemies!
The Beta was fun for 2 hours-- I'm glad I checked it out but I'm not going to buy it. -
-
jimsmithOct 14, 2008This game is really dumb, it lacks any kind of story, and really fails to appeal to any kind of gamer over the age of 4. Do yourself a favor and pass on this one because it is nothing more than a waste of time. It seems the PS3 fails once again to claim a good exclusive.
-
-
WayneHoggettOct 14, 2008The user reviews are at 6.2 out of 10 and the game hasn't even been released yet. Are Nintendo and Xbox fans coming here and voting zero just to bring the score down? The magazine reviewers have actually played the game. This is one of the most innovative games of our time and you must give it a try.

ChrisN.Oct 14, 2008I rate this game a 10 simply because, while I was playing the beta I couldn't remember a time when a video game made me more happy than little big planet. Whether you are creating your own world or playing around in someone else' world, there simply is no end to the joy in which this game brings forth.

TannerMcFarlenOct 14, 2008This game only has a low user-rating because xbox 360 fanboys are lowering it when they neither own this game, played it, or own a PS3.
I got an early copy of this game and I must say: this is the best platformer I have ever played - better than Mario! -
-
MarcGOct 14, 2008With a solid story mode game and an amazing level builder system, this game goes beyond what any other game has before or will for quite some time. If you own a PS3, preorder it now, so you can get the added goodies, and even a giftcard if you go to the right place.

TomK.Oct 13, 2008This game looks amazing, plays smooth, and it's an engrossing time sink to create your own levels. It's the best 4 player cooperative party game this gen. Though, some levels require a bit of skill so being unused to games or intoxicated could be an issue. Has amazing graphics and depth.
-
-
damonmOct 13, 2008in beta - fun side scrolling action, 3 depths to take advantage of. unique look (cloth and stitch effects), great graphics. Lots or repeat play available with custom levels created by yourself or others, rating system to find levels tailored to your liking (need network connection to take advantage of this). must have for any ps3 owner, good game to start with for any new ps3 owner.
-
-
JacobH.gOct 13, 2008The beta was incredibly fun, and surprisingly deep. Most of the naysayers have yet to experience the game. Once you pick up the controller, you won't put it down. Trust me. I played for four days straight -- when I had free time -- and only stopped playing because the beta expired. Finally, a game that makes me proud to own a PS3.
-
-
TarkanT.Oct 13, 2008You can never get tired of it. When you make a level, it's unique to you. It shows your personality, the quality you put into it. And when you're bored of that level, make a new one!! Hey, who's stopping you? It's so easy to do what you want to do, and it makes you more creative.

AnthonyW.Oct 13, 2008This is one of the very rare games today that had me smiling all the time while playing. The Beta on it's own felt like the full game, but with 50+ levels burned onto the blu-ray disc and fixed glitches from the beta, calling the game perfect is an understatment.
-
-
JeffreyH.Oct 13, 2008Having beta tested this game, I can say this game has GOTY candidate written all over it. As IGN said: "If you own a PlayStation 3, you cannot miss this. If you don't have a PS3 yet, this is the reason to get one."
-
-
EduardoR.Oct 13, 2008I beta tested this game and I can tell you one thing... LBP is the best "game" that has been released in a long time. It's just addictive. Makes the whole "create, play, share" to be really awesome. From the cheesy levels that make you laugh to the really cute and ingenious ones playing user generated levels in little LBP is just plain fun.

BobM.Oct 12, 2008Good game but doesn't deliver on all fronts, Playing online is a lag fest, finding a usercreated level that is acutally good is unheard of, allows one to make their own level and use their creativity to guide them.
-
-
KristianL.Oct 12, 2008incredably addicting, indefinate lasting apeal due to player made levels, sharp and crisp craphics. the whole idea of Play Create Share makes this game a must buy for most people. Con: Possible lag due to Peer 2 Peer use of online aspects.

Playstation Official Magazine UKThere simply isn't anything else like LBP on any system, anywhere. It's a beautifully elegant and powerful creative tool that puts unlimited potential in the palm of your hand. [Nov 2008, p.92]
-
We're just happy to see a flagship game for a modern system that's about running from left to right and jumping over things. New ideas are great, great old ideas are better, and LittleBigPlanet has both: it's the future and the past of videogames, rolled into one.
-
Little Big Planet is revolutionary thanks to its flexible, fun and powerful editor. Creating a quality level takes time but the feeling of achievement is overwhelming. A must for everyone who loves creativity or likes to explore what the creativity of a passionate community can produce.
