wonder if anyone is gonna score it below 9

 

[ajvizzgamer101]

I have the beta... It's only fun if you have online, if not don't buy it. The User created levels are so fun to play!!!! I haven't played the beta in 2 days because I keep getting disconnected or PS3 freezes.

Edit: Dammit, hadn't intended this post to end up on the new page.

While these are all design elements that I wish were different, there are also a few bugs that will crop up every now and then that I hope will eventually be patched. One is where if you have three objects glued together, and then you detach one of them, the third object will also become detached.

NO! Patch this by launch MM...it's SO annoying.

Wut? The Beta ended and only had 4 levels. Of course it was only fun online. The full game has 50 levels.

I predict 7.5 from GS.

"This game just has too many options"
"I don't want my videogames to make me smile"
"No Kane and Lynch Sackboy"

 

[ajvizzgamer101]

LMAO! I bet your right

 

[deepbrown]

Could you be a little more specific? I've seen three reviews now that say 20 levels.

20 main levels. 30 challenge levels.

 

[Tntnnbltn]

I cant do the thread...I'm too scared. ;_;

1. Create a thread
2. Add one of your famous pictures to the OP
3. ???
4. Profit!

Spoiler

I actually thought you'd been responsible for more official threads than you actually have been. Didn't realise it was only PJE and Supersonic Acrobatic until I checked just then.

I can do it but you'll be scared of the result :lol

Maybe the OT should be done by 3 people : Play, Create and Share.

Not that it matters really, but how is lasting appeal not a 10? :lol

 

[Forsete]

All these scores! Well deserved.

Sackboy is fucking in heaven.

IGN AU

he cynic in us can't help but question if it's fair to make large portions off-limits to people without a second controller, however. A separate one-player-friendly way of getting to this content would've been thoughtful – though, we're sure Sony's accessories department are plenty happy about this decision.

UH...go online?

 

[deepbrown]

This is the first game on the PlayStation 3 that truly looks like it could only operate with significant parallel processing, provided by the PS3's Cell architecture. While the 360 could arguably pull off the physics or the engine itself, LittleBigPlanet combines incredible physics processing with stunning 1080p clarity, rich colours, HDR lighting and light bloom, depth of field, enormous scale, particle and refraction effects and a laundry list of lush textures, shades, maps and animated details.

Bring out the console fanboys! :lol

ps, Since when is lbp 1080p?

Internet? In Australia? Don't be silly!

I predict 7.5 from GS.

"This game just has too many options"
"I don't want my videogames to make me smile"
"No Kane and Lynch Sackboy"

I predict 8.5, focusing on the usual issues:
* Plane switching
* Floaty jumps
* Creation being too difficult

 

[Baha]

I wonder how many reviewers will forget or don't know that you can play the single player campaign online with others. The SP levels in the beta allowed for online co-op.

 

[Xenon]

9-9.5 seems right for me. Having control over sackboy's jump & movement speed would make it a 10. Even though I enjoyed the beta, I can see how some could be turn off the by the control of sack boy.

I don't think so. The flop every game Gamespot is long gone since all the old editors left. I expect a 9.0 from them.

 

[Tntnnbltn]

@ IGN score

9.5/10? In my LBP review?

Spoiler

It's more likely than you think.

 

[ajvizzgamer101]

Thats a good point... In brawl there was tons of more feature then in this game but what I don't get is that LBP is much fresher experience and you don't have to get overwhelmed with all the features. Personally as long has there is someone making levels online it's a 10, there are some really creative levels.

 

[Kestastrophe]

Some of you are reminding me of Zelda fanboys and the famous 8.8 from Gamespot

 

[Always-honest]

yeah.. scores are expected. everything about the game says "brilliant"

 

[Tormentoso]

90 looks a little low,but is Eurogamer they have rate some good games on PS3 to low,yet slapped 10 on GTA4.

 

[Goreomedy]

I could go to my Friends list and choose Greg's profile. I could go to his hearted levels, find a level I like, and then view the author's levels. I can then view said author's hearted levels, and see what he likes, and so on and so on. In other words, you should be able to get to Kevin Bacon's profile in six clicks or less.

:lol

90/100 might look low. But 9/10 looks better. 4.5/5 looks even better...and 2.7/3 looks even better than that

Nobody is making a official thread for this??

You perhaps?

OT: Scores are great, don't know why this thread is 9 pages long.

Because there's not an official thread ...

Bruce is working on the thread.

I predict many scores below a 9. I can't wait for the game, but I can see several sites not seeing this game as a 9 or above.

I thought this was the official thread:

I guess that was just the pre-release thread, heh.

Awesome.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

Ahhh cant work on the thread guys so sorry I just had another deadline project come in.
Sorry.

I think GoFreaks page should just be changed to the official and we can update it.

[Wurm]

I'm thinking there needs to be 2 separate threads. One a general LBP Official Thread, the other a LBP: GAF User Levels thread, complete with template for showing your shit and a cycling cream of the crop updated 1st/2nd/3rd posts.

I was trying to goofily create a page header a moment ago but can't find any HD screens of the Pod as it is in the Beta, particularly the felt planet, moon and News board..

 

[kittel]

From the IGN review:

"I couldn't figure out how to create a trigger that only works once. For my rock slide bit I mentioned earlier, I tried to place an emitter (which spawns any object you choose) that would create rocks, and then have it create three of them when I set off my invisible trigger. That worked, as you can set an active maximum number to spawn. But, when I left the trigger, and then went back to it again, another three would fall out. I couldn't get it to work just once, and then never again."

Answer to this is the permanent switch. MM demonstrates this in their early levels by putting a magnetic sensor above dissolvable material and having the magnetic switch of the corresponding color below. Proximity of the sackboy would disintegrate the dissolvable material, thereby closing the magnetic switch permanently.

"I wanted to create a trap where you would step on a platform and a proximity trigger would cause the piston to fully extend and then stop at full length (read: the ceiling). But because "fire once" wasn't an option, the player could jump off and the platform would stop moving without reaching the top, or it could hit the top and then come back down part of the way. In either case, it wasn't the (seemingly simple) effect I was going for."

This could be done by having the proximity trigger a permanent switch described above. The corresponding magnetic switch would be set directional and the piston non-backwards.


Edit: fixed :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

Yeah, I say make that the official general discussion thread - reviews, thoughts on the gameplay, online co-op and so on, and then make a new thread used just for user created levels and content.

This. The custom level thread should have that awesome youtube link list to give people an idea.

Yeah both of those are pretty simple to pull off :/ The World of Colour level has a bunch of permanent switches IIRC for example.

 

[sonicmj1]

How the hell do people get worked up about scores, when scores are so abstract and meaningless? Review text is what matters.

Also, I hate the 6-page IGN review, a la MGS4 and GTA4 and Twilight Princess. A summary of every single function in a game is not why I read a review.

 

[kittel]

yikes :lol :lol :lol . It's hard to study for a job interview and micromanage GAF posts and a google group at the same time!

 

[Woo-Fu]

9.0? Did anybody tell Eurogamer this is for the PS3 and not the 360?

 

[Lord Error]

9-9.5 seems right for me. Having control over sackboy's jump & movement speed would make it a 10. Even though I enjoyed the beta, I can see how some could be turn off the by the control of sack boy.

You do control sackboy's jump speed and direction, and also his movement speed. I noticed that within five minutes of playing.
