While the game does look creative and interesting, I am willing to bet this game will do pretty poorly.

It appeals to the completely wrong audience for most PS3 owners and I think most people are quickly going to get bored of it.

I disagree, for every "rickytan" there is another person who is considering a PS3 just for this game (like me).


You're assuming that people that visit these forums are the majority-- they are by far not.


We're videogame snobs...


Speak for yourself. I'm a connoisseur :3

It sure does look pretty, but I'll only be convinced when we see some actual gameplay videos.

 What are you talking about? It has nothing but gameplay videos...

Say what you want about N. Am. and Europe, and I'll agree to disagree, but LBP will be a system seller in Japan.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

I have the most epic death scene ever in VGChartz Mafia.  Thanks WordsofWisdom!

Yep. I really hope the game is great and that it takes off but I have the nagging feeling that after 5 hours and 10 poorly-designed user levels, my friends and I will be saying "let's go play Rock Band'. With the developer putting so much in the hands of users, it could bomb just as easily as it takes off. If a solid community doesn't form around the game within days and user content shrivels up, it could flop terribly.

Only time will tell. It looks like fun but until I find out more about what is bundled into the game itself, I'm skeptical.

I scrolled down the GT comments and was disappointed by the "I'm looking forward to (MGS/KZ2/FF), I love PS3 but don't see the point in this game" type comments =(

I'm still annoyed that it has nothing to do with Little Big Adventure xD But other than that it looks fantastic, they chose a great song for the trailer aswell.

PLANET. And yes, the song is a great fit.

True fan there, aren't you? :P

And yes-- that is a joke, don't take it too seriously.

 

And yeah, one of three things is going to happen with this game and its users:

  1. The person is genuinely good at making fun levels and has a good time with the community and the game.
  2. The person is terrible at making levels but thinks they're good. When the community rejects their levels, the users gets pissed and has a general bad time.
  3. Users aren't particularly good or bad at making levels but are flooded with the crap by the above user that make the game just not that fun (remember, this game mainly strives on user created content).

 



Ok I'm not the biggest Sony fan but I honestly don't see the interest in this. Even if this was on the wii, I still have no intention of getting it.

I'm not against games that don't have a strong gameplay objective, I love Harvest Moon which is a farming sim of all things. It just looks like an obstacle course which will get boring after the 3rd time through.

I'm all for supporting creative indie style games like this though. I'm betting this game will flop. It'll prolly flop a little less hard on the wii but it'll flop regardless.

(formatting lost, oh well)

The fate of #3 should be fairly easily avoidable via a voting system.

 There is a voting system.  It will have a comments and rating system similar to youtube's, and it will also have "highest rated", "most downloaded", and "friends" sections.



Even with all that, I'm still skeptical. Take UT2k4 for an example-- it has a very large community and many maps for people to download. If you go into x community and look at some of the more popular maps you will find out they suck. A lot.
