I noticed in the video that you can fill certain areas with toxic gas (not just apply it to objects, but literally fill an enclosed space with it.
Should be easy enough to add water into this game...I hope they do it for release (probably not, but oh well).

On the 2nd phase of the boss Nox Decious's theme from Stupid Mario Bros start playing (Dont know the name to it) I love that song and I'm so happy its in LBP this means we can use it in the create mode!
Also I am so happy we can create bosses that complicated...just wow...

I went to the videos that WiiRevolution1 just posted above (there is starting to become so much more media for this game it is getting hard to keep track of - still need to look at the IGN ones mentioned before - and each time I'm getting hyped seeing all sorts of little details I hadn't seen before - everyone should check out those videos in WiiRevolution1s post).
Anyway, on the second video (here's a direct link: http://it.youtube.com/watch?v=RtIBb7BjFbo), part way in you can hear the player ask about water and it sounds like it is one of the devs responding that they did not get that in (it's hard to make out the full explanation).
Other interesting comments that the dev made were that they had a bunch more levels that they had to take out because they were too easy and users were finding them boring and not enough gameplay. So it is good that the levels will have been tested to be challenging enough (although it would be nice if they allowed the easy levels to be downloaded in the future just to play around with them).
Finally, the dev said that there is one downloadable level they made that looks like it is underwater - it is not really water, but the look of it is supposed to be good and it seemed like the dev really liked it.

WTF? Sony's going to go apeshit if that really is the games final boss. I'm not going to watch it to find out though.

you folks have considered that these downloadable bonuses will most likely be universal codes like "gamestop" and "bestbuy", right?

That is so friggin' cute.
Also, I doubt those 'new' camera angles are playable.. they don't look very playable for starters. I think they're just using them in ads for sackboy close-ups.

No we don't know yet. He just means like it was for Burnout exclusive cars for example...Farnack said:
But maybe BestBuy will have on exclusive content for LBP ?

Even so, I can't imagine is happy about the final boss leaking out months before the games release. They've actually been rather protective of the story mode.

Re. the videos here..I'm not gonna watch the 'final boss' one since I think it could actually be the final boss :| It looks like in that build that they have a fair amount of the create tools unlocked, so it's possible they had a fully 'played through' game there and someone managed to twist the demonstrator's arm into showing later levels (they certainly seem to have been shown a couple of other new levels at least).
I did watch the others though. This one is nice for clarifying exactly how to make a vechile from scratch. Shows how to use rockets, switches, wheels etc.:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5oBDAvIFVg
Also reveals another switch type that hadn't explicitly been talked about before - simply a grab switch which activates when you grab it.
edit - in another of the vids the demonstrator also mentions that some levels that didn't make the cut for the story mode will be available to download - a number of levels were cut for being too easy or whatever, but they'll make them available because some of them look really good.

I'm going to try and avoid videos from now on. It's gonna be hard, because I'm addicted as hell, but I want some of the stuff to be fresh when I slide that sweet disk into my furry slot for the first time. Sadly I'll probably be watching another video within 10 minutes from now
I'm thinking replays and isn't there a story mode where you can make up stories and share them (like the ad with the sackgirl in the castle)?Chû Totoro said:Maybe we'll have those camera angles for replays ?
I was just messing with you dude, but a cool thought just struck me. Imagine if you could make the vehicle switch planes - you'd be able to make a section where you had to weave between traffic.Private Hoffman said:

Sony seems really serious about the marketing for this game. Moreso than i've ever seen them with any other game. This is also the first time from what I can recall that they've ever wanted to push a character as being the "face" of their system like they're trying to do with Sackboy/girl.
Awesome, awesome stuff.
I really hope the camera angle thing is the last big reveal. Imagine them giving you the perspective of the ring gauntlet levels in Sonic and Tails on the Genesis (whatever they were called).
You could have triggers in your level that would automatically switch the perspective to make certain platforming sections more doable.

You can only create 100 levels? And theres a limit on uploading? WHAT?! I wanted to create WAY more than that (Without having to delete them) and I wanted to keep ALL of my levels online without deleting them...you better be able to buy more online storage!

They're doing that to prevent people from just throwing a bunch of shit together and clogging up the servers. It's not like 100 levels is exactly a small level anyway. From what they've said if you do a good job then they'll give you even more space.

Holy shit I never been more excited about a game before
SolidSnakex said:
Very good info. I'm glad someone's asking for more in-depth info on things like switches. I think the significance of the switches is huge, especially like he says for doing things you might not expect from LBP initially.
Also, I thought the bit about level keys was useful - though it might seem obvious, I'm glad they've confirmed that you can lock levels so that you force players to progress through levels in a certain order. That opens up all that multi-level hidden areas, bonus things, 'inside areas' etc. that I was thinking of in the LBP ideas thread.
Another thing he touches on that I think is going a little under-recognised is the significance of the blueprinting system. For people who are familiar with software engineering, it's like object orientation, but for LBP
The ability to build with and on top of other people's creations as if they were a black box, not needing to know their inner workings. It may seem like a subtle thing, but that'll prove to be so so useful, and so powerful over time.Dead Prince
