LBP never tried to be hardcore. That being said, it offers more than any other platformer does.

Not saying which is better, just saying.

That depends if your talking DLC and user generated content or actual out of the box functionality?

Out of the box Little Big Planet is just a really pretty side scroller at best comparable to Mario. But Mario offers a far wider range of difficulty and plenty more in game content then LBP. Excluding all the clothes and stickers (Which really don't effect platforming at all)

how does out of the box mario offer more than 4 player local, online co-op and an infinite amount of user generated content and the ability to create your own levels?

I admit, the platforming is different, it doesn't have the same nostalgia, and you know what? The level design in Mario is in most cases better, but in terms of what you are getting from a game, LBP Is a far superior product. There's a reason why It's a 95 on metacritic with many GOTY awards.
