I can't stand platform games. I got sick of them in the early '80s when they were the most over-represented genre out there, but a multiplayer, physics-based platformer with user-generated content, from the creator of Rag Doll Kung Fu? Hmmm, I may just have to reassess my stance on the matter. Especially given that it is without doubt the best looking child-oriented game I've ever seen (sorry SMG fans).
I'm really interested to see how flexible the design is for creating physics puzzles, though. Half Life 2-style see-saws could get boring pretty quickly.
Saying “It’s going to be the most important game ever” is obviously hyperbole, but it can only be a good sign. I just hope it sells enough copies to keep Media Molecule making innovative and original games. I don't expect it to set the charts alight, but sales of over a million are quite probable. It's definitely an unproven market as far as the PS3 is concerned.

Sure, it's hype, but if the game deserves it, what's so wrong with that?
@ Vertigo-X
Without much evidence? The source in question had a 2 hour hands-on with the game. Is that not enough to venture an opinion?
