Yeah, they have a lot in common.
You know, I can barely tell the difference, they are so similar!
Customisation, stickers and level creation are not boring. At least not to everyone. I happen to like them very much, and so do the other 2 million people who bought the game. So why don't you stop making up excuses that are visibly trolling?

Did I say they are visualy similar? Look, I won't discuss with someone that directs the conversation the way they want just make a point I didn't even discuss. Any side-scroler platformer will have its roots on Mario (until one proves me wrong). If you can't find any variable in both, there is nothing I can do and there's no possible discussion.
Oh, about the rest, it seems there are only 1,999,999 who bought it and like those new features, since I'm one of those ;) Oh... I also don't like the lack of proper gravity.

LBP having roots in Mario (like any platformer) is not the same as "3.-LBP is nothing but a desperate move to atttract famliies to the PS3 IMITATING Mario".
To say that LBP COPIED Mario is different from saying that LBP, being a platformer, owes much to Mario; and it's untrue. If LBP was just copying Mario, where did it get the circle waypoints? Where is that in Mario? Why don't I get extra lives by collecting bubbles? What about the grab-based game mechanics is copied from Mario? Are you saying that the Paintinator is copied from the FLUDD? The list of objections goes on.
LittleBigPlanet is its own game. It's no more a Mario copy than Halo 3 is a Goldeneye or DOOM copy.
