Forums - Gaming Discussion - LBP vs SMG!!!

So whats better? Having played the BETA and SMG I think SMG pawns all over LBP. But what do you think?



End of '08 predictions (made by theprof00): PS3: 20m, 360: 23.5m, wii: 42m

Now Playin':  PS3|Resistance 2, LBP, Uncharted and Fifa 09, PSP| Ratchet and Clank: Size matters, 360| Gears of war 2 and Fallout 3.

2D platformer vs 3D platformer. Direct comparison is no better than FPS versus sidescrolling SHMUP.

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! 

Well, considering SMG is the best 3-d platformer out there, I'd say the chances are pretty slim of LBP outclassing it. User generated levels are going to be interesting( to put it mildly) but they probably wont match the platforming genius of the Mario team

while LBP cannot beat SMG in level quality, I think the fact that it contains an actual coop (instead of the "hey collect shit for me while I play" from SMG) and that it will have many more hours of enjoyment than SMG due to user created content evens it out a bit. I'll call them a tie in my mind from what I've played of both (played a bit of SMG at a friend's and played the beta for LBP)

Whats SMG?

I don't think it's a fair comparison. Let's just say that both will be good.
