LBP is boring at first I must admit, but when I went back to it dare I say I found it better than Super mario world.

That's quite a recommendation. Few games ever are better than SMW.

That said, with SMW, I don't think many people had to go back to it, to appreciate its greatness.

So you question people calling a game great when they're in the middle of playing it, or if they have to come back to it.  So is a game's greatness only legitimate if you decide this directly after finishing the game?
