Can you really review a game on content that hasn't been made yet, or content that wasn't included with the game? Seems like a slippery slope that...

Yes, of course. That's what LBP is all about.

The story levels are far more imaginitive and clever than any other LBP game and are about 6-7 hours long. The Popit Puzzles are new to the franchise and are about 5 hours long. But these are built purely and simply to give you a taster of what is possible and to give you all the ingredients to fullfil your OWN potential. Some people get it, some people don't. IGN got it with LBP2 (for some reason ignoring the bugs in that) but didn't get it with LBP3 (somehow docking points because of bugs). Someone who understands the franchise should have reviewed it, not someone completely ignorant of it.

This game is a 10/10 and SUMO should be commended, not forever tainted with the fact they created the lowest scoring LBP game to date. They've created the BEST LBP game to date.

So using that logic every single LBP is 10/10 becuase of user created content?  They can only review whats on the disc, and as I and others have said, past games scores were likely inflated because the user created content tools were new. This score isn't that suprising really and getting pretty much 80 still means its a good game.

People are going to have to get used to the fact that reviewers arent throwing out 80+ to every game that comes their way, and I hope it stays that way.
