[QUOTE="ispeakfact"]That SMB3 recreation in lbp2 was killer!ConanTheStoner

Killer as in looked terrible? Seriously the gameplay was disgusting lol.

If this is all cows want then Sony might as well just reskin games like Doom 1 with KZ and Uncharted graphics and call it a day. The next GT game should be a simple reskin of Daytona USA. Obviously you guys dont care about the underlying gameplay.

I think it's funny how you praise people's creativity and then link to rip offs of other franchises that people have made.BPoole96

Why wouldnt you just play the original versions of those games TC?

That SMB3 level was painful to watch. So was the Sonic 2 one. Just because you dress up a game to look like a good game doesnt mean it plays like one.

If some creepy dude comes up to me wearing Natalie Portmans face I'm not going to take him out for drinks. :?

ConanTheStoner

If the original Mario games played that way, the franchise would have died already.

[QUOTE="ispeakfact"][QUOTE="Blabadon"][QUOTE="ispeakfact"]Have to agree with TC. LBP is, by far, the greatest platforming series of all time. Not only in terms of graphics, but just in what it's capable of. No other platformer can, well, make more platformers, rpgs, racers, etc. LBP 95 meta LBP2 91 meta

But not in terms of gameplay of course.

Of course gameplay, my son. Don't be jelly now. :cool:

But what other platfromers thats you've played are you comparing them to?

I don't care about that, Super Meat Boy is a much better game. I played like an hour or two of LBP and got bored because everything was so easy. At least games like Kirby's Epic Yarn make easy games fun, LBP was just boring.

It's a great level editor with pretty much the worst platforming mechanics in a game. Only to cows does a level editor with sh!tty mechanics make it a good platformer.

I wouldn't say it's one of the best platformers, but it's still a very good game. Lots of freedom to make your own levels as well as mini-games and music. There's a lot to use at your disposal to craft brilliant levels and mini-games and share with the online community. The creation tools are difficult to use though. It's platforming is ok but I wouldn't say it's that good. The game is fun for its creative tools and fun atmosphere which overall create a fun experience that's even more of a blast with friends. I prefer LBP2 over LBP1 overall, but LBP1 did have better physics. The game would be better with smoother controls and more advanced and creative platforming that rivals other hardened platform games.

The problem with LBP isn't the content, that part is completely covered. It's problem is the gameplay, and in an action game gameplay is very important.

If you have a PS3, sure. Otherwise lol no. It is a lot of fun, but the only thing it doesn't get beaten at by some other game is its level creator, which is hard to use and Media Molecule took down most of the best levels anyways. Blabadon

LittleBigPlanet Alladin:

Just to name a few, amazing how much creativity can be applied to these custom made levels.rilpas

I think all of these videos show both the strenghts and weakness in the game's editorall of the games look good and are somewhat faithtful representation, but they all feel wonky and sort of unstable (specially sonic)

the TC picked awful levels here. there are countless gameplay focused levels, these are just parodies

Depends what you prefer, LBP is 2.5D plat former, meanwhile the games you listed are all 3D platformers, or 50-50 in Sonic's case, LBP is definitely better than most of Sonic's recent games, except colors and Generations, I prefer Ratchet and Sly over LBP, but thats just my opinion, I've never been a huge fan of Jak, but I've only beaten Jak 1, and I've been meaning to finish the others. In terms of platforming LBP is just not that great IMO, it's creative aspects are wonderful, if only the platforming mechanics were that good.

I can't disagree with this statement enough. I thought both LBP games were mediocre at best and the user creation stuff didn't do much for me.

It's a excellent series for what it is, definitely the duo to get if anyone is even remotely interested in a PS3. But as a platformer alone, it's sh*t compared to the heavyweights (Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island, Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Rayman Origins, etc.).

As a platformer Littlebigplanet is god awful. I mean just look at the videos you posted. Yeah the people that made those levels got the visuals right and they're nice tributes to the games they're based on, but the actual gameplay is god awful. Littlebigplanet has HORRIBLE platforming controls. The creativity possible with the user creation stuff is great, but it means nothing if the controls are so bad it's near impossible to make a platforming level actually worth playing. The excuse for not fixing the controls in LBP2 was because they needed to make it backwards compatible with LBP1. What's LBP Vita's excuse? It has none, and it's just do frustrating to see this franchise not get the basic platforming right. If they just revamped the controls of LBP there would be great potential for a game with not only great user creativity, but also great platforming gameplay. I just do not understand why they continue to keep the same crappy controls.

2 levels equates to MM taking down all the best levels? 2? the fact is the majority of the best creator's levels are still at your disposal.

btw, i don't know if those particular levels are there or not. i'll gladly check for you when i get home.

I hate Little Big Planet. I hate the second one even more. Overrated crap. The Sackboy character is cool but the games floaty control kills it. The first games soundtrack was the best part about the game.

I think Modnation Racers is the better game in every way in Sony's casual building games. Little Big Planet to me is not even average because of the piss poor control. It can't hold a candle to Mario and Rayman Origins is better tha them all.

So I disagree.
