Forums - Gaming Discussion - I`ve seen LBP in action... Sony is ripping you off

This is like the people complaining about Wii Music. Not every game is about you.

Everyone said LBP will be huge and will sell systems... It`s a 3 hour long game that looks like Mario only a little more inventive. How can you pay 400$ to play this game when there is little to no replay value and it`s short?

I just don`t understand.

If you`re interested in the game,here you go -> http://www.gameanyone.com/game/PS3/1392.html

It`s in the gaming category because it`s an insult to gaming (my opinion and only my opinion) and seeing how Banjo 3 ,a great and long game is supposed to not even compete with this rag doll is a true insult to gaming (shal i repeat the "my opinion" thing?).

How is it being like Mario but a little more inventive a bad thing? (had to italicize the 'little' part, because it's far more inventive then Mario.)  Mario is a great game, if it's anything like it I consider that a good thing.

Speaking of new owners it can make any game sound expensive. So it costs $250 to play SMG, or $180 to play Halo 3.

As for 3 hours. I've played almost 5 hours and haven't come close to completing the story mode. Where did you pull that figure from?

LBP is an incredible concept and it's pushing gaming in a new direction. You might not like that (I suspect that has a lot to do with your overwhelming 360 bias more than anything else) but that's the way things are.

Although this might come as a shock to you, but the game had been described by the media as: 

"One of the finest games in recent years" and "One of the most important games to be released this decade".

I can tell you after playing the game, that those descriptions are apt.

Where do you buy your games?

Seriously, though, I got what you were saying. How many people are going to buy a PS3 and buy this game and this game alone? Oh, around zero.

When the X360 got its Halo 3 boost, do you think people were buying it only for Halo 3? No, they were just waiting for it to come out because it was what they wanted most. They'd probably been eyeing Gears of War for a while. Buy a PS3, get LBP, Resistance 2, Tools of Destruction, Uncharted and MGS4.

The laws of mathematics state that 96 is more than 94 (metascores for LBP and Halo 3) but life is not governed by mathematics, so LBP will not touch Halo 3 in sales. But it will still do very well.

Did you just say Banjo 3 was better than LBP? Okay, Folklore is better than Tales of Vesperia.

LOL lbp has the most replay value of any game this gen.



It's all about the game.

I saw the smoke on the other side of the Internet. I got here as fast as I could, but it was too late. This thread had already gone up in flames.



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

I insist. The gameplay on the disc is about 3 hours long. I was not talking about the user generated levels,only the disc levels you payed the developers to make(indirectly). My 2 cents,obvios.

 

I insist too, why do you base the replay value on the devs work only when the main goal of the game is user generated content????

Because that`s robbery in my books. Using generated user levels means less development cost and more profit,because the users are making this content instead of developers. Generating advertisement that "you can finally create your own levels,people" is a scam also,meant to increase the respective console`s userbase and generate more sales in the process.

No one is more capable that the game`s developers,and they were paid to make the game. Simple.

Your freedom in the game is falsly generated,but i`m not using that as my argument. I`m using the people that don`t want/know to go online/download the content. They will get 3 hours of gameplay and you know it.

 

 

LOL you are an ignorant, developing an engine that allows others to make their own level is the hardest of all goals. The developers has to provide everything that users may need in the future and a framework that does not have bugs no matters what the user does. By the way you can have your opinion,  you just dont have any criteria (criteria: enough knowledge to emit a rightful or pricise judgement)

whats wrong with the game ??



I am amazed at how we can have 19 mods on this site, and yet horribly obvious trolling like this can get to nearly 50 posts. Stan85, I feel truly sorry for you if your fanboyism affects your judgment of games THAT much.

Locked.



 

 

I think it's time I was made a mod.
