TGS: LBP GAF Impressions - LBP is Win Sauce + Info

[Dolla Dolla]

Little Big Planet
OH YES! OH MY F&%$!$! GOD! THIS IS IT! Played with DCharlie, LEOsh and a SCE rep as a foursome. The physics are amazing, everything feels so alive and fluid. And it's so unbelievable cute. If you don't know already, you can press the 4 directions on the d-pad to make different facial expressions which is insanely adorable. We played the exact run through the level that is in the old movie, ending with the skateboard, but the level seemed to have a few branching paths that the SCE rep wouldn't let us go down. This game is going to be HOT HOT HOT when it comes out. I hope it ends up being online with voice chat because that is going to be THE way to play... with some drinks for extra amusement.

Little Big Planet = AMAZING (although I played with a few slow guys, I had to literally pick them up one by one in my rocket pack to bring them to the rocket pack power up since they couldn't reach it themselves)

LBP has been confirmed with voip and the lips actually animate as you speak online.

LBP sounds like it will be SO awesome. I can't wait till the demo comes out so we can get some VGC impressions.

Snippets from article:

The other big revelation is that LittleBigPlanet will feature VoIP and all the characters are actually lip-synched; when you talk, their adorable oversized gobs will babble away, which is always entertaining. This feature wasn't demonstrated, but will apparently feature in the press conference. Beyond this, although Evans was non-commital on a release date, he did mention that there were plans for a slow roll-out of a public beta this year starting, jokingly, with his mother and expanding bit by bit from there.
