People keep saying LBP is not revolutionary yet they cant name one game that does everything that it does. Denial much. Yes there are games that allow user created content. Yes there are platformer games out there. Yes some games allow you to fully customize your characters. There are games with level scoring. There are games that let you go online. Yet are there that many games that let you do all of the above? The simple answer is ..........NO.

While Spore does sound great, the fact remains that Online is the big thing right now. Games need to be online to be seen as viable in the gaming world of today. As much as I love a single Playergame (my favorite actually) in this case LBP takes home the trophy, with unlimited possibilities, only halted by the creator's imagination, there is no stopping this game.

LBP trumps Spore only because it creates the possibility of it lasting litterally forever with user generated content. Its like having a brand new game every month.

I mentioned Morrowind in an earlier post, and although it sucked, Oblivion also had a game editor.  There are plenty of games that have game editors added to them, look at Civ 4, everything is available to be modded.  When I was modding, the community was asking for features that they wanted to access, and the next update opened up these features.  The truth of the matter is that game editors have been available for years in the PC world, and it is amazing that you are able to deny that.

 

you also my friend have mistaken engine modding as being part of the game. They are a completely seperate part even though the creators allow you to do it. That is just like Unreal Tourny and the Unreal Engine, you can make mods for the game with it, but it is not PART of the game. I cant do any of that on my console for that matter either.

This is My point.....
