And you're going to say LBP is innovative because it has a good level editor and method of sharing them? You're going to say that out of AAAAAALLLL of that, none of them have creation tools or hubs for sharing levels? Doing something well is different from doing something new.

I love littlebigplanet, I play it every week since I bought it on day 1. But I'm going to call a spade a spade. LBP was marketed as being massively innovative and that's why people call it massively innovative. But it doesn't do anything that hasn't been done before, it just does it well. But I guess doing something well is as innovative as doing something new. Call Of Duty 4 is officially is incredibly innovative.

again, which one of those games in the pointless list includes a platforming level editor that lets you share individual pieces as well as levels on a youtube-like server?

your only innovation from Mario 64 was a rotating camera. I gotta tell ya, God of War did pretty well with a fixed camera. so it didin't change all future 3D games, just adding another method to use. Even if you say that's so innovative, it's only 1 element of the overall game. it's not like a new genre was created, and yet the game is still considered innovative.

Just tell me what game is like LBP, especially on consoles, but even on PC. You list a lot of games with level editors but that's not the innovative aspect, it's the implementation. As per my definition, found on dictionary.com, using a different method is an innovative activity.

btw, I play Axis and Allies, and counting "AA Toolset editor for Axis & Allies" as a level editor is ridiculous. Nice list...

Again, have you played Spore? Also to that list you wanna add the following stuff:

Oh man, by that definition EVERY level editor is brand new and innovative stuff! Look at WC3 for example. What other editor lets you create specific maps where they can be TD, or AOS, or Melee, or RPG, or a bunch of toeher such stuff? Which don't even have to be shared since you just join a game and it auto DLs them for you?

See what I did there? Your attempts at specializng it are just sad to be honest.

Again, your view of innovation is ridiculously broad. Name me a game where you absorb souls and then assign each soul to one of four buttons so that you can summon them in the blink of an eye, each one with their own unique abilities set in the context of a celtic murder mystery. Folklore is massive innovation.

Technically yes, LBP did somethings different from others. But technically so does Deadspace which is incredibly derivative, and nobody is ever going to say that Deadspace was an innovative game. A high quality evolution of the 3rd person shooter/horror genre yes, innovative no.

LBP is at best an slight evolution of existing concepts and technology, not a revolutionary innovation that will change gaming for a generation or more.

Mario 64 created a genre, every 3d platformer for years and many to this day are just Mario 64 clones or highly derivative of Mario 64 and it's concepts and tech are used to this day. People evolved what was present in Mario 64 to modern games and tech. LBP isn't going to spawn a genre, and it's already an evolution of ideas so nobody is going to evolve LBP concepts ten years from now.

Your idea of innovation is way off, it's incredibly broad and by using your concept of innovation you can make incredibly formulaic games sound innovative. The fact that you would Say Mario 64 isn't innovative but LBP is would immidiately disqualify you from arguing anything because of the insanity of it, but since the argument is with you it persists.

by that you are telling us nothing innovations.

wii motion controls are not new either but nintendo was the first make it popular and put it into a console same for touch screen... it being in phones and pdas for years.

Guess it is slowing things down for their sales.

Huh?  Starcraft, which is where the WC3 level editor came from, was very innovative!  You are arguing against vagabond now.

Not everything is innovative, just new things, and a platforming console game with an emphasis on sharing levels and even third party contributions is quite a new thing.

1. Folklore was innovative, and has one of the best uses of Sixaxis with flOw and Warhawk, but there's not much that will change the genre. You are helping my point with LBP. Those abilities you assign are all very similar except that some won't work against some guys for abritrary reasons to force you to use whatever ability you get in the next area to kill the next room's guy to kill the next so you can beat the boss. Rinse and repeat. I hope that's not emulated. That's as cute as saying Too Human has 1,000,000 combinations of weapons/armor or whatever it is, when most of them don't change the gameplay. Was Folklore innovative? Yes. Was it genre defining? No.

2. Ok, deadspace wasn't innovative, even if they had some unique things like putting the health on a character's back. Not seeing how that applys to LBP, which does innovate. I would say that a Sci Fi Survival Horror is rare, though.

3. I think LBP does lead to great things. All game types should have a LBP.

4. This has been said many times before, but Mario 64 did not create a genre. Weren't you the one comparing it to Doom, which defined a genre but did not create it? Mario 64 wasn't even the first 3-D Mario Platformer!

5. I never said Mario 64 wasn't innovative, I merely compared the amount of innovation to LBP. I think they both innovated, and my earlier point was that you don't have to be the first to do a genre to innovate within it.

Hah, turns out Crash came out in the US a month before Mario 64.  that's funny.
