It's pretty much a fully customizable game. You make your stages and characters and play it with friends and share your created levels online. I'm definately getting it.

Me to. Then i can play with others in the same room. I feel like there's no fun in multiplayer games for next-gen consoles.

Why not read a preview on the game since you are on a website?

What so good about it to deserve this hype?? Absolutely nothing, I'm afraid. But games getting this kind of hype for no reason, is quite usual around here.

I wonder myself, "what is all this hype behind a kids game for?". I'm getting it, the marketing team did a great job pushing it out there. Now if the results match the hype.....thats a different thing. It would be nice if it did meet expectations. Besides, what else is there to get on the PS3?

Its a kids game why because of the art direction, or because it doesnt have have people shooting and dismembering each other? That makes no sense, anyway the game is getting hyped because it looks like a quality platformer, why because you can assure that yourself. Even if they stages that come with the game arent to your liking, you can make your own stages that are to your liking and get stages from others. If you want you can create your own platforming game, so basically you cant go wrong with it. thats why it is so hyped.

i suggest you go on gametrailers and watch developer interviews and levels the developers have created.

But if you need persuation here goes:

LBP is a 2d platformer that contains 50 levels straight out of the box with multiple different types of levels like classical platformer, challenges with scores, races, etc...

The emphasis is majorly on the fact that you can make very imaginative levels very easily with the tools that have been given and the limit is your imagination. they also claim that the premade levels can be done by yourself providing you have the imagination.

Once you have created the level, you can play them offline and online. You can also share them online and play other peoples levels. each level that is created can be rated by anyone and there will be a leaderboard for most poular and most highly rated level.

You could create your own 2d game with multiple levels and a story linked to it if you really wanted to! hell... alot of people are thinking of doing a super mario clone ;).

there you go. and watch some videos!
