LittleBigPlanet is sitting at 95% on Metacritic.  Unless a lot of reviewers decide to backtrack then it seems sure LBP2 will be getting a lot of glowing reports.  All the previews say it's better in every way so it should be another critical darling.

I can't believe they missed the holiday sales though.  Sony and Media Molecule seem determined to always give the franchise some form of handicapped start on the market.

Can't wait myself.  LBP is my favourite new IP this gen, and the new tools and open creation platform approach look awesome.

@ Bolded: In fairness, perhaps it just wasn't ready. If that was the case, the extra polish time is worth it. With a game as ambitious as this, I don't think there can be much room for error, and judging by critical acclaim to the first, I think they knew they had to live up to enormous expectations.

I think this early score, while given by a PlayStation magazine, could be a sign of things to come.

No, I agree with Reasonable, as this gen as shown I think "extra polish" hasn't much improved scores or perception of the game (SC, AW, GT5 to name a few) that said I don't know what state they were in before .. can't have been that bad surely. They all looked fine ....

LBP2 could have been a massive seller this xmas ... it'll sell well throughout the next year though no doubt.
