LBP Vs. Blocks

LBP is a lot different than blocks, from what I can tell from the blocks video (first time I've seen it). LBP is a lot like a side scroller, there are 4 characters called sak-men (which you can customize), and from what I can tell, the basic gist is to get them through the level (from left to right). Blocks looks more puzzle like to me, where the object is to knock down all the blocks, LBP is more like a platformer. Here are some videos:

 That's what I figured.  Even with LBP being a platformer, it's still more or less the same thing as Blocks.  Like I said the only two real differences in the game are the puzzler vs. platformer and the art styles.  There are of course other little things like the detail in the level editor and how the game controls, but it still boils down to the same three concepts: 

Physics is fun.
Creating is fun.
Sharing is fun.

While we have a puzzler vs. a platformer these are still based on the same above three ideas.  And ignoring Hus' pointless arguments, these are casual games.  I actually see a soccer mom playing LBP planet over Blocks.
