So SW, which do you think is better?

I'm not going to vote because I haven't played both, so I don't have a final judgement.

EDIT: Haha, lol I just realised I can't view the results if I don't vote, so I'm going to vote that they're both equally good.

SMG by quite a large margin

LBP has more replay value though, it just isnt as good of a game

Mario is a helluva game, and gamewise it is better. However, as far as sheer originality, and complete imagination Little Big Planet is uncmatched this gen. I mean who thought a sacboy would ake a great game. I personally had more fun with LBP

This is a perfect example of when innovative gameplay design and originality don't pay off. As a game, even though I love LBP, it just can't stand toe-to-toe with the godfather of platforming. SMG is the most polished and well made 3D platformer in existence. The floaty jumping mechanics and plane-style levels really hurt LBP in the gameplay department.

One of them is one of the most polished platformers to ever exist. The other one can't even compete gameplay wise with the original super mario bros not to mention mmegaman 2 smacks it around like a child. SMG wins by a landslide, this isn't even a competition in my opinion. LBP has a long raod to walk before even being compared to mario as a platformer.

Wow, really people Mario, I stopped playing those games when I was about 7. LBP has endless possibilities from playing new levels everyday and making your own, it truly is a lot of fun. Super Mario...eh...I played my 5 year old cousins copy at his house and it was super boring....

No amount of level making will make the gameplay mechanic not suck. As far as I'm concerned, one play through of mario galaxy is better than anything LBP produced or will produce in the next 20 years. As for mario, my age and maturity have nothing to do with how Ipick games. I'm sorry that you feel the need to pin the immature title of kiddy and such on us because we differ from you. Don't worry though, when you get older and more mature (this is the really important one), you stop caring about what people think about your habits and learn to do things for you and not to impress others.

I haven't played LBP, but I've seen enough videos to get a good idea of what it's like, and it doesn't seem to be a serious platformer. I don't think it's fair to compare it to SMG when they're hardly even in the same genre.

SMG. While I had a lot of fun with LBP, you can't beat SMG in platformers.

LBP... endless replay value, trophies, and you can create your own levels. SMG is superb as well though.

LittleBigPlanet is the better game overall. SMG was good too, for sure, and it was fun. But for one, its on the wii, and two, LBP has so much more replay value, and IMO, way more fun for the simple fact that you can play online with your friends. not to mention Mm is still building the game up, giving us free costumes periodically, patching the game, and supplying us with a steady stream of DLC. SMG doesn't even have an online aspect AFAIK. At any rate, both are good games, but LBP is better overall IMO.

And it has absolutely no use for one. It, unlike LBP, has a really rich single-player experience, so it doesn't need to rely on multiplayer and DLC.

True. Some games just simply don't need any form of online.

I find it a bit troubling that most of the newer generation of gamers put so much stock in all things online.

Aww come on people, stop being fanboys. I have SMG, I have yet to play LBP. But I have to go with SMG because that game is just sheer genius and fun. I have both Wii and PS3 and I need to get LBP since I've seen and heard great things.But from what I've seen the mechanics are no where near as good for a platformer to much over done ragdoll, that's not good for a platformer.

my vote goes to SMG.

My platformers this gen goes

1.SMG

2.Ratchet and Clank TOD

Not that many to choose from.

LBP is more a toy than it is a true game. Its a great toy mind you, but the better platformer is SMG hands down.

SMG and it's not close. It is easily the best 3D platformer ever made. LBP has great level creation and physics stuff but the actual platforming mechanics are pretty mediocre.

I pick Super Mario Galaxy. It's new, yet it reminds me why I got into gaming in the first place (15 years ago).

Super Mario Galaxy is the better game but Little Big Planet is the more creative and innovative one. It has done things most games could never accomplishe.

Own 'em both and I have to go with SMG. Having said that, if you own a PS3 and Wii and don't own both games you're crazy.

Wow 108 and someone is yet to say they are both crap, I'm surprised considering this is system wars. But anyway I went with SMG because I couldn't really get in LittleBigPlanet all that much :(, unlike SMG which I loved.

SMG. It's a far better platformer. I couldn't get into LBPs floaty feel.

As far as gameplay goes SMG wins by far. The platforming mechanics in LBP are kind of stale and it kind of makes the game un fun for me. I have more fun admiring people's creativity than actually playing the stages.

While I'm sure LittleBigPlanet is a great game on its own, Super Mario Galaxy takes the cake. It is the best 3-D platformer I've played this generation, and possibly the best I've played, ever.

Super Mario Galaxy is prime. Perfect gameplay, beautiful music, and a fantastic art style. How it did not get a 10 here and GTAIV and MGS4 did, I'll never know. (Not saying those games don't deserve it but SMG deserves it more)

This shouldn't even be a question. Mario Galaxy by faaaar.

LBP is a glorified level editor with floaty gameplay lawlz.

SMG is easily one of the best games this gen lbp is not even close
