New story, I think, since it's taking LBP2's "engine"/physics and stuff and adding the touch-screen and motion controls to it. Gotta show those off in the singleplayer.

Download imo for platformers and puzzle games, stuff you might just want to switch on without needing to invest much time in.
I mean changing a card takes like 20 seconds but thats 20 seconds you'll never get back
How big will this be? I remember reading ~2 gigs. I'd need to delete Escape Plan or some music off my 16 gig... or finally spring for a 32. All those downloaded levels are going to add up.
It's 1.6 GB.

I was positive that this was going to be a complete piece of shit.

The beta was really good, and allows for some great touch-screen minigames. There was one level in the beta that had me thinking "if I they put this on PSN for a few bucks, I'd buy it".
It is defintely the sort of game i want available at the tap of a finger all of the time. And therefore i will be downloading it.
Apparently they're doing a blog post this week about preorder bonuses with download version, so...
Likewise. I'm very protective of LBP and don't like how they keep putting out boxed sequels rather than iterating on a digital platform. It's a very dated model, and divides the community. That said... looks like I'm getting a Vita.
Download confirmed, then.

If it doesn't I'm sure we will see a PS3 port. Sony won't let a great game linger if they have the option to port it to other systems. The touch screen stuff would just have to be reworked.

Can't wait! My Vita needs this game!

Can't wait!
Downloading community levels is something i've always wanted. This sounds like a definitive version.

All of them had so far, I doubt this one will be any different.

Yes, it has it's own story.
Very impressed by the demo on the JP Vita PSN (had a ton of fun snapping pictures while out and about and designing stuff with them!) -- that combined with a lower-than-normal MSRP in Japan make this a day-one for me. (A week from tomorrow in Japan!)

Oh?! O_O
If true, I will go digital. About time PSN started adding some value to the digital versions of Vita games in general. The prices are certainly high enough (mostly higher than retail, in NA at least), and we sure don't get anything besides the file to call our own.
W00t W00t ! As expected. The LBP concept is also a natural fit for touchscreen.
Like the idea of the developer perfecting a game mechanics on other platforms, and bring it to Vita. Mutant Blobs also benefited from its predecessors, before they made a "perfect" one for Vita. If other ports do this too, I'd be elated.

Congrats! You guys are a super talented studio... now please make City of Metronome for VitaThis amazing! You can believe how happy everyone here at Tarsier is right now.
try his level when the game is out.. it is crazy .. lol
IMHO, LBP has a lot more potential and depth on a multi-sensor, portable touchscreen gadget. Would be great if they have LBP various themes (Outdoor, Sciences, Our Body, etc.). The built-in physics and integration with camera and other optional sensors should be very fun.
If they have really fixed the controls, then it would be perfect. Even better if they make LBP Lite player for iOS/Android to play the user creations. Or at least create a Youtube channel + website integration just for LBP creations.

Is it tarsier or double eleven that is made up of former R* Leeds people? I know they both have exclusive agreements with SCEE.
Yes. It's much less floaty.

I'll be buying it for sure.
Just a shame that no game seems to give the Vita the boost it needs and I doubt this will either. This is the perfect game for the Vita, so hopefully it does well.

If the creator allows it. As well as saving stats and then continuing that stat keeping in another created level from the same user.

Haha. Can't wait for this game now.
Yes. A very significant one, IMO. The idea of long games etc. is finally viable, although I know people came up some limited sticker-based tools for 'saving' level progress.

This sounds very exciting.
Happy to see this is getting good scores, I also have a $30 preorder at Newegg so I'll be able to see for myself next week.
The Little Big Planet games have been a big hit with my 7 year old daughter, she asks me all the time to play co-op with her. I would have gotten this game regardless, but it's great to hear that its a worthy sequel.

it does.. people on my PSN list have complained about me sending out Near Challenges (even though I did not send any)..

That is pretty much a requirement for a portable game.

I know I'm cheer leading here... but it's refreshing to see so many people looking at this as a home run.

damn, best lbp ever? i think i'm gonna need a vita then.
Yeah, and it ran great in the beta.
The idea of playing a proper length RPG excites me greatly.
