To anyone with LBP Beta: How are the controls?

Like many i didnt get the oppurtunity to play the beta after numerous attempts. Im upset, but the games only 20 days away, so the lucky ones who got in, the least you could is answer a poor fools question.

Yes, this game looks amazing, and everyone is raving about its innovation and all that jazz. However, from watching all the videos over the past couple years ive always thought the platforming controls didnt look the best. It seemed a little clunky, and difficult to control. Is this true, or did all these ppl demoing the game just suck?

Also, what parts of the game would you say are a letdown? All I hear is great things, must be some downfalls.

The controls are really easy! A 5year old could do it.

I'd say...the only letdown is that it isnt out now! ;D

so no real complaints? wow this could be GOTYsignore

No doubt. I'm a huge GTA IV fanboy, yet LBP has knocked it out of that spot for me. The beta is that good.

So quick to forget about MGS4 I c.

MGS4 is the frontrunner to me now,, i think really only LBP and maybe fallout3 are capable of beating it out. R2 and Gears2 will be great, but basically just expansions on original and shouldnt really be considered. My biggest complaint with MGS4 is how little you actually get to play,, its a great game but on a second play through (when youve experienced the story), its a letdown at how little you actually get to be snake .. instead of watching him.

This is LBP thread though, and FIFA 09 is my GOTY anyways haha

Thats not the proper question, the controls in PLAY mode are simple only 3 main things you do, Run, Jump, and Grab.

The edit mode however is a different story, I find that the learning curve is very high for create mode, the learning part is a drag because there are parts where you have too much info on how to do a simple thing (for nearly every item you need to go through a seperate tutorial mode). And other times some items are really confusing to use. I'm still learning (I'm using the Japanese Beta so that could make it harder even though the text is in English).

Once you get it its like finally taking a look at the sky not through a straw its incredible in its depth
