I stopped quoting because it was just too long at this point
Allowing me to create these levels with my friends is a very large point of the game for me. My friends and I have wanted this for a very long time and without it I wouldn't be willing to plunk down the cash for a ps3. I don't think it's trivial.
In an age of gaming monotony i would say that most users do feel that the finer points make the game. Ask any FPS fans about the differences between two different games in the genre. it all comes down to the finer points. Is Half-Life the same as Doom?What about Virtua Fighter and Tekken? Final Fantasy and Breath of Fire?
Take away the scale of shadow of the Colossus and you DO have a different game. Take away the scale of creation or sharing in LBP and you DO have a different game. Plenty of games allow you to play, create, and share but not on the same scale.
I suppose i understand you're point now, i simply do not at all agree.
