Also, when cuddly cute creatures are on Nintendo consoles, they're for kids, but when they're on the PS3, they're for everybody...or didn't you get the memo?

 

Well I can't speak for everybody but for me as long as the game is fun with a resonable amount of quality and polish it's a good game in my book. I like a balance between artsy/cartoony games and realistic/gritty ones though. A nice variety is always a good thing.

I've got to say though, if nintendo had this game as an exclusive, the fanboy defense/attack positions would be reversed. The praise offered by some ps3 fans would become criticism, the criticism offered by some wii fans would become praise. It's interesting how that works.

 

Exactly what I was thinking. It's amazing the number of Nintendo fan(boy)s that aren't interested in this game, when it should be right up their alley.

How does this fit the Wii gamers stereotype.  Last I checked Wii gamers like the easy to pick up and play games.  Unfortunately LBP is a level creator which needs a lot of tedious dedication to create a level and design things to be what your vision is.  That's kinda the opposite of the Wii gamer stereotype now ain't it. 

And of course you can play other people's levels but it's either play amatuer created levels or developer created level.  It's an easy call for me if I'm spending $60 haha. 

But as I said maybe that's just me but I'll still try it because the little rice sacks are just so cute haha.

 

 

It's far from just a level creator.  When I had the beta, I assumed I'd spend most of my time with the level editor, but I ended up spending 90% of my time romping around other people's levels with friends.  A couple of people playing together can have a blast in even the crappiest levels, because of the physics and Sackboy's animations.  Even by yourself, bad levels can be pretty fun.

And don't get me started on the really GOOD levels, like Hollow Bastion and God of War - Demon's Skull.

Definitely try it.  I can understand having your view of the game at the moment, but once you play it, that wiew will be completely flipped upside down, lol.
