LBP Beta extended, if you never quit

LittleBigPlanet gamers are reporting in our forum and all over the web that the Beta was still alive and kicking hours after it was scheduled to end. All you had to do was keep playing it and never quit or turn off the PlayStation. It looks like the servers are still live, they just won't let you login now.

6 - I noticed that
I played earlier yesterday but later on in the I wanted to play again only to find that the Beta was over. Yet some of my friends were still playing. Had I known this I would have just kept the game running til October 20th midnnite(jk) as GameCrazy is having a Midnite launch for LBP in my area XD

What an AMAZING, UNIQUE & FUN Experience LBP is and I hate that the Beta is over.

Leaving your playstation on hours and hours is basically saying you have no good ps3 games.I played 2 extra hours but the beta isnt all its cracked to be,its a good game but not a goty by any means unless your into just running around jumping and swinging on things.

Reasoning skills?

Leaving ps3 on for hours means you have no good ps3 games?
LBP is only running and jumping?
You don't like the game but you cared enough to play for 2 extra hours
after the beta ended?

Something just doesn't add up here, lol.

A MESSAGE TO ALL THE BULLSHITTERS:

If you never quit the game after midnight GMT last night you could play the game online levels up untill around about 2pm GMT(14hours later) earlier today.

I was gutted when online levels stopped loading up.

ANYWAY, The servers are now offline (no online levels will load or highscores taken) and you can only play your own created levels and the story mode levels (if you stayed online and never logged out of the game).

I know this because I still have it connected after I fell asleep with the PS3 on and when I awoke to check PC internet world realised others could not get back in to the game (I am going to switch it off soon though as i'm now sick of playing my 3 levels and story mode).

P.S. also from about 6am there was only 4 players online (me and 3 others). So this is all extremely exagerated and very old news.

I think its because it has an expire thing. If you look on the beta's information under its options it has an expiration, none of the other betas I've played had that before and so it still played but you had to be in game to still play it if you quit the expire thing would say sorry I'm expired go away. and besides its not an online beta only it had single player there as well so you could still play it anyways until you quit and the expire thing said that its expired.

That's may be true because I was playing LBP until 2:00 am the night the beta ended and my friends were sending me messages asking me how come I was still playing it if the beta was closed.
