And although everything felt surprisingly positive, and even though we know that there are now nearly nine million levels that have been created by players around the world (that will also work in Little Big Planet 3), we're still a bit skeptical. Maybe that's because the split-gen development, with the title being developed for both PS3 and PS4, potentially has limited the possibilities of what could be achieved if this had been created with just the PS4 in mind.
That said, we're still looking forward to this next game in the series. We've seen so many imaginative worlds and creations that never cease to surprise us. Nevertheless, Little Big Planet 3 feels as if Sony followed the motto: "more is more". What Little Big Planet 3 needs after the rise of so many similar creative games, is a new focus. When the game is released next month we'll see if that's something that can be found in amongst all of the new features."
Sony has confirmed that LittleBigPlanet 3 servers on PlayStation 4 will remain offline “indefinitely” following troubles with the service from earlier this year.
Sad day, hopefully they’ll allow a third party server solution. Goes to show game preservation is an uphill battle.
What needs to be highlighted by this is that the series has had 4 main games then that go kart spin off yet sony let them all die.
There is 0 games like this on ps5 and to my knowledge 0 first party main kids games no tech demo crap
Sony purchased Media Molecule studio the ip then tossed it away letting it rot for over 7 years yet the community carried on until now were we have lost 16 years on all games of content along with no replacement.
Everyone goes on about ea killing studios but sony has killed way way more but its fine its sony they can do no wrong.
Before the sony blidboys track me down again go fire up your holy boxes all the dlc they tossed out all the trophies and all the user content needs a server side handshake that no longer works. Yes offline single player version 1.0 works but that is it.
Media Molecule was not cut i know but they only made LBP and dreams it was reported they just missed the chopping block

Do not forget the dreams game was tossed out 2020 but 3 years later support was pulled

All in all this is another failure at sony on a long long list in the past 10 years
I feel bad for Media Molecule. For the ideas they have it seems they need a publisher that supports games like this and Dreams especially for as many players as possible.
Isaac Clarke of Dead Space fame has appeared in many games, both as a playable character and an Easter Egg. Have you played them all?
Classic LittleBigPlanet servers are to be shut down permanently following hacks.
Sony’s drastic move comes after months of downtime for the older games.
It was fun while it lasted. And some of the user created stuff was a blast to play with.
Have to say I expected them to be permanently shut down problem would be in the underlying server architecture and possibly something like a depricated authentication protocol which has to be replaced that the PS3, PSP and vita can't support which is why they can't be securely restored on those consoles but the PS4 does support it.so lbp3 was restored on that.
Given the attackers were able to breach the server there was obviously a fear of lateral movement once inside their servers so I can't blame them for this and it makes sense despite the huge blow to the community millions of hours spent building that community.
Despite this blow I believe the millions of creations are going to be available via lbp3 and it's capability of backwards compatibility with user generated content so that's something to be thankful for still not a huge consolation to the many players who only own a older console but unfortunately that's the world we live in these games are old the older they get the more insecure the servers get which the company that make them.host them on and the more likely they need to be shut down.
Understandable they had to do this better to be safe then sorry. I just wish those right wing racists that hacked the servers and started posting homophobic slurs would get want they deserve a good few decades in prison.
Hmm I dont think the ps3 will hold rhis game much back and the fact u can play all the orher levels is a win for me. Looking forward to this title more than anything else in November
He should review the game as it is lol at cross gen excuse an awesome game is an awesome game regardless of anything example bayonetta 2 not the best looking game but it was a great game overall.
I am buying the game anyway so reviews won't change my mind especially if the reviewer complains about stupid stuff.
I'm sure alot of people have it in their head that this game would be so much better if it wasn't coming out on PS3 too, like that's gonna hold it back. I mean, sure I kinda feel that too, but I don't know that it'd be much different either way. This should be a helluva fun game that lots will be able to play. I miss the old days of playing LBP 1 with my son. Now he's 18:(
some of the music in lbp1 was amazing
The stage transitions remind me of puppeteer
