i guess you can call be unimaginative, but i think ill probably only make a dozen levels or so and then get bored

also, i really doubt ill be able to make anything really cool. kinda like line rider (bad comparision, but w/e). i always tried to make something special, but always failed in the end

Dont think people wont comment on your levels and try and help you make it as good as possible, its one of those games your always gonna go back to and work on your levels or just run around in other peoples levels....

Heck I know I would love to see a level I make rank in the top 5,000, thats one of my goals and I will continue to set a higher goal for myself as I go along.

Little Big Planet appears to be quite limited and dinky, so yes it would get boring. People who dont think so obviusly have never played around with flash, or a programming language.

I don't know how it will get old fast. Features such as editing, creating, and commenting, will last a long time and many examples are Garry's Mod and Halo 3's Forge. Only difference is that LBP is a 2-D sidescroller with 3-D enviroments (I don't know how to explain it, really) but I really don't see the problem with that. Also, it's coming in Fall08.

It will get old because it doesnt offer enough depth.

REforever101

You do realize that they will have a ton of already made levels for the unimaginitive to play. Then if you want to make your own that is fine, or just take advantage of others work.

There is still a game in LBP, people hype its level editing tools but the dev have a game already made for you.

If you like games that give you the freedom to do your own thing then you will love Little Big Planet.

I don't know why anyone would bash this game, I'm personally not good at creating. It's just not my thing, but I can appreciate the work of others. I can't wait to see what people will come up with.

Which is why I'm wondering why people are comparing LBP to XNA and the like. I don't think anyone realizes that XNA require programming and design while LBP just seems like a level editor.

Yup, I start making one, but I spend so much time perfecting 1 area that I get bored :P before completion.

The same can be said with Spore, I will enjoy seeing what they can make, seeing as SPORE isnt limited to childish themes (though its marketed around it ).

Because flash is a freaking development kit ... and its not that good, same rehash after rehash now, bike games, castle defence ect ect ... the engine itself is very limited by how much it can handle.

Why are you comparing a Platformer Level Creator to a Web/Mobile developer kit? Games are not even its primary function really.

I'm not denying it doesn't offer endless possibilities, but that doesn't mean it will make it great or get older any less soon.

Someone use Forge as an example, well do you know how many people on my friendslist use forge "0". yes, it's cool to have a mess around at first, but it quickly gets old. I can see the same happening with LBP, although it does offer more stuff. Once my mates and I have played a few levels and we've helped eachother fight a boss, or move around a map, move objects, it's just going to be more of the same.....

LBP is a gamer that GAMERS can take a stab at creating their own levels and sharing. This allows for a ton of imaginitive possibilities in this puzzle style game.

What you are talking about is straight up progamming which is not somethign most gamers can take a stab at, as it takes years of knowledge, possibly education and programming abilities.

Its alot more free then most video games available but is not a dev tool which is what your comparing it too.

Let me guess, you one of the many MS fanboys hyping XNA.

Please, to you and me maybe, but Action Script 3 is hardly simple for everyone... hell even navigating flash can look like a nightmare at first ...

Its a silly comparison ...

Yes except a level designer and a dev kits are not the same. People around here may find it hard to believe but it's true.

Forge places object in an already made map, and when the game is a FPS, those objects may never play a role in your gameplay.

However LBP allows people to make the whole level or map. And since its a puzzle type of game how people place objects GREATLY affects how the game is played.

As for it getting boring fast or not, thats up to the person who owns it. If they are interested in trying a never ending puzzle type game with maps created by other gamers then it has tons of replayability but if you just a FPS fan, of course you will get bored, the game doesnt appeal to you. Bordem is subjective.

Maybe, but all Ive seen of Little Big Planet looks sadly dinky and limited. Maybe the final product will be much better than what Ive seen so far, Im hoping that it will.
