We live in a world where a port of a one year old game (ME2) gets a sticky and a newly released AAAE for PS3 doesn't....

Anyway, the game is pretty much AAA in all the places that matter, including GS.

Been playing it non-stop today, and the vs. games are genius. The platforming levels are awesome too, and feel a bit faster (pace-wise) than the first. Floaty controls are still there... the jumps actually feel a lot more natural on one of those jump spring pads.

Heard nothing but good things about it. I should download the demo and try it out (it has a demo, right?).

Edit: And like caseywegner said, the sticky was taken down. Stickies are only used to prevent floods of topics, and in the case of LBP2... the discussion died down rather quickly and there was no topics about it on the board.

I don't think the story levels are strongest part of the game.

Quote from someone on GT forums "I guess being able to create almost any kind of game you want with the infinite power of your imagination isn't original enough." It made me lol knowing the reference :D Great score

Also Stevo, I need to apologize to you. I'll take GS's word over IGN's any day, and ME2 on PS2 is not superior over the 360 version. Remember this day, because it will never happen again!

Makes me sad :( It's a near perfect game aside from the controls... and I haven't even touched the creation aspect of it yet.

It didn't get much attention cuz it didn't flop. No need to worry about it.

Another AAA score for a great game. I'm surprised at how this game is being overlooked here in SW. Cows should be gloating about another AAAE for the PS3, but they're not. Weird.:?:P

I don't see why everybody thinks GT is biased. They've given a lot of PS3 games good reviews. Just like Gamespot, they're just a little more critical than IGN or your average gaming magazine.

Even if they are they won't be for long.

Oh, please. The community tools are the biggest part of the game and everyone knows it. Negative, negative, negative all the time.

It has a demo... but honestly the demo made me not want to get it. It made me think the game was more of the same as the first.

The single player campaign is actually pretty good, and was surprised it had an actual story with actual characters. I love the versus mini games... those make me feel like i'd never need to purchase a PSN mini game ever again.

Also Stevo, I need to apologize to you. I'll take GS's word over IGN's any day, and ME2 on PS2 is not superior over the 360 version. Remember this day, because it will never happen again!

No worries, mate. I did warn you though not to believe IGN. Can't spell ignorant without IGN! :P

Hmm. Well, that's a turnoff.

Definitely deserved. So far, LBP2 has been an awesome game. The jumps are still floaty, but much more responsive than in LBP.

It's a shame this game got overlooked in SW on release day because of the stupid argument over the ME2 GS review.
