LittleBigPlanet is amazing. That's all you need to know about this review. LittleBigPlanet takes old school platformers, modernized them by allowing gamers to create so much to play them how you want.
First the campaign. Yes there's a campaign in LBP. Well sort of. The developers created plenty of stages for you to play through in which your sackboy/sackgirl must save the world from an evil tyrant who's taking it over. As you could probably tell the story isn't revolutionary, but it does add to the cuteness of the oh so lovable game that is LBP. The stages the developers created are extremely fun, and they get more challenging as you progress through the game. You can play through the campaign alone, co-op (with up to 4 friends), or online co-op (also up to 4 friends).
Next the creative aspects of LittleBigPlanet. You can practicality create anything you think of using the tools in LBP. Go online, and you can see all the amazing levels created by other gamers. However, it takes time to get use to the tools, and it can take a while to build something like a car let alone an entire level. However, you can save objects as well as earn them by playing through levels which make life that much simpler. As of now and probably always there are more people who only play levels instead of creating, but those who are creating have provided enough content to keep the players satisfied.
The negatives. Every game has its faults and LittleBigPlanet is no exception. LittleBigPlanet's main problem to me is its online. Every so often you may run into minor lag especially playing offline co-op, but play online co-op with a group of people and the game chugs. It's a shame, because playing with friends makes the game infinitely more fun, but it just doesn't work as good as it should. Offline co-op works well, but online not so much. Another problem is the left behind system. There's no way of telling how it works, it's just completely random. The person who's moving toward the end should leave the others, or the person with the most bubbles, but you have to play the game to know what I'm talking about.
But ultimately LittleBigPlanet is still one of the best games this generation, and SHOULD BE OWNED BY EVERY PS3 OWNER. LittleBigPanet has redefined the old school platformer, and brought back a genre that was soon to be extinct.
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.
Times are changing, and these games would have never been made in today's climate.
Every single time someone uses this phrase whether it's music, movies, books, comics, video games, etc it's always the same claim.
The ubiquitous "they" won't allow it to be made. And every decade these claims are made the claimant completely ignores all the "offensive" material that is published when the claim is made.
In ten years, you can write a new article about how you can't make games like Helldivers 2, Resident Evil VIII, Mortal Kombat I, Dragon's Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2 etc etc etc any more.
Dead Island: "The early PC version of the zombie game swapped the playable character Purna’s Gender Wars skill with a prototype name, which shouldn’t be mentioned directly. The skill name made fun of both Purna as a character and feminists."
"Feminist Whore" lmao
ill add one more to the list.
drakengard 1.
its ridiculous tho, especially since they'd still be able to find their place in alot of places in the world. except america of course ha. and maybe Australia.
ppl are so sensitive these days. ha. but it is what it is.
They're not offensive.
And we need another Fat Princess. Fantastic little game!
Some people just have no sense of humour if this sort of thing offends them. They need to lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.
Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Is the PlayStation 3 retro? This is a surprisingly hard question to answer as the system definitely has the age to be considered retro, having launched in 2006, over 15 years ago now. But with it being home to so many massive games, many of which still hold up today and in fact were released for the PlayStation 4 when that console was released, make the PS3 a retro console that doesn’t feel retro."
Typically, the term retro is given to items which are at least 20 years old (but not yet 40 years old).
Quick google search
No the PS3 is not yet a retro console. But if you're gonna put 1 game from a series in this list, then LBP2 should be there instead of the original, Motorstorm PR is also an overall better game than the 1st game and to put Tools of Destruction over A Crack in Time is a blasphemy when ACiT is the best game in the series.
I rarely give out 9's so LittleBigPlanet joins the ranks of games I consider AAA.
