Joseph of GAMElitist.com - "To show you my perspective, let’s look at LittleBigPlanet. LittleBigPlanet is a great game. It provides a fun and innovative take on the 2D platforming genre and it lets you slaps stickers all over your friends. This game is loads of fun but it’s not. For many people, it is a pointless waste of time."
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Electronic Arts CEO Andrew Wilson stated in a recent EA Earnings Call, that the next Battlefield "it is going to be another tremendous live service.”
Another? ANOTHER?
Is he honestly trying to make out like the last Battlefield was a huge success, not just as a game but as a live service game? I'm sure these guys live in their own echo chambers, they are so far removed from reality or they just like talking out of their arse trying to rewrite history.
Also why say such a tone deaf statement when you know the state of live service games at the minute and how many gamers feel about them. Bigging up the next BF game as live service does not give me any excitement or hype.
Call of Duty games used to be streamlined experiences, but COD 2024’s UI could be another nightmarish clutter of streaming tabs.
If we’re beating that drum, can we also stop forcing anyone who wants to play only the single player to download Warzone and all updates BEFORE they are then able to do another download from the menu of the single player campaign. I don’t see why I need 150gb of downloads in several ways to play the single player mode only from a bloomin disk which should have that campaign on it already.
The UI is confusing to me because I have not purchased a Call of Duty iin like 8 years .Only bought CoD MW3 because 3 of my friends I have known since to 70s are playing zombies . But I am used it now .
The UI is the least of the franchise many problems these days. But yes the UI is also terrible.
Yeah, because its all opinion. Same concept applies to attractive women. Most American men in their 20s would rail Megan Fox given the opportunity, but several tribes in Africa would consider this women "sick" because shes too thin.
Little Big Planet is a series I've really tried to like. Amazing art direction but the premise of a game built around collecting stickers just doesn't do it for me. It's funny because I think about collecting coins in Mario and I can't get enough of it.
And this is why we don't need Game reviewers either.
everyone has different taste in games so when i mite think something is absolut crap someone else will love it. and its the same with clothes, movies, etc
This article is all over the place and doesn't really have a specific focus. If there is one thing to agree on though, it's that if you own just one console, that'll be your only talking point.
I literally have no preference when it comes to owning both consoles and a gaming PC. I was into playstation when it first dropped in '95 and didn't break from that path until '10, when I bought a 360 to go along with my PS3. I can safely say that I don't give a crap about the console war. In owning both, you come to release just how versatile each one is in fitting a specific need.
That's why nobody will ever learn, and it will continue well into the future.
