The NZA Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 ok, so i only got onto the servers for a few hours yesterday, played with some kotakuites & had such an awesome time. made hte mistake of logging out, couldnt get back in, gonna try again tonight. id venture to say that, like Lunar on my Sega-CD, if the fanboys were right & this was literally the only game to show up on my PS3, itd damn near warrant the purchase. mind you, im horribly biased: im sick of shooters, and Braid got me fondly reminiscing platformers in a way that caused me to forget all the sweaty palms, shot nerves & broken controllers. but the idea of a system where i can log on (in theory) every few hours and find new, innovative shit, amidst the throwback "here's Mario level 1-1" or "that zelda 2 dungeon with horsehead!" levels, its like i finally get why the PC kids tell me im an idiot for buying valve products on a console when i could have years of free mods giving me 10x the bang for my buck. i think i get it now...open source user-content is what's been missing in so, so many games. i ran through the tutorials to see what i could do, and its very approachable for having the potential to be endlessly complicated, but it makes you run through shit like the God of War level and just marvel at some fan who built you a level that could hang with the dev's built-in ones. part of me is almost sad that i could walk away, in my mind, calling this my game of the year over MGS4, when i know its my fault for not getting more into the full Metal Gear Online, but again, im largely sitting on an awesome Resistance 2 beta cause i just dont have it in me right now for another shooter. now, putting a WWII helmet on my sackboy and riding a tank through someone's GTA level? that, i can do.

Jables Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 *sigh* I still gotta find someone with a PS3. Otherwise, the free copy of LPB promo has started, and I sorely contemplate just have a PS2 & a PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NZA Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 this game is consuming my life. i still dont know how this japanese kid did this, but i played the level last night (as well as his DDR one!) and i was mad impressed. check him out, search for user RRR30000 (i think that's an option? i found him on page 20 or so myself) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NZA Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 yeah, so i want that shark and sen's about the froggy. this game's DLC could rank up with Rock Band if they play it right; i mean, i still dont know the price but im already sold on Snake & Sephiroth. stoopid Los, aced every level but the one with the infernal wheel - i got 80%+ of the items, but acing these is gonna be a bitch.

Jables Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 So pardon a stupid question but... Do the different sackboys yeild any differences in gameplay or is it just skins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Losifer Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 yeah, so i want that shark and sen's about the froggy. this game's DLC could rank up with Rock Band if they play it right; i mean, i still dont know the price but im already sold on Snake & Sephiroth. stoopid Los, aced every level but the one with the infernal wheel - i got 80%+ of the items, but acing these is gonna be a bitch. The Snake and Sephiroth sackboys are going to be $2.99 each, according to the playstation blog. But they may also be part of a pack of 3 (like Snake, Meryl and Raiden). Actually, I aced ALL levels...just sayin'. Now if I can only get people to help me get the rest of the items...I'm sure I'm well over 90% So pardon a stupid question but... Do the different sackboys yeild any differences in gameplay or is it just skins? They're just skins, but they're pretty dope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the division of joy Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Now that i have this, i'm finding it hard to get into without wanting to play another of the games i've bought this month... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 its a great in-between, honestly. you can get all hardcore into Fallout 3, Mirror's Edge or whatever you're up to and casually play a few levels here & there of LBP. youve only gotta really work on the single player mode if youre looking for trophies or materials to build a level from. ive been off it for a bit this week, but im really hoping sony gets more clear on the moderation bit. popular levels like God of War's Skull Palace and Azure Palace are now gone, the former likely for copyright infringement (which sucks, it was awesome - apparently the way to do it is name your level "mario tribute", not "Super Mario Bros 1-3"), and the latter for reason unknown, though its thankfully back today. still, the labor of love that these custom levels take, you'd expect a bit more transparency on sony's end regarding policies/warnings and the like.

Losifer Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 ! This is probably one of the greatest DLC I've seen in any game. Not only does it bring a ton of new stuff to mess around with, it also brings new levels and trophies. On top of that, the new paintinator gives the game a whole new mechanic. Indeed. The game has changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 that....was so freakin' awesome. i cant believe id not seen that, im all excited for this pack now. and its out for christmas or so, i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jables Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Not being an incredible MGS fan, I gotta admit that was cool, but how was that last 2 seconds not registering on anyones thingies? Bioshock levels would tip the scale so completely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 pretty sure that was Psycho Mantis, i mean Screaming Mantis or whichever it was in 4. ah, but the lighting made you think Big Daddy, then? and yeah, honestly, i was all with Revine not wanting multiplayer in Bioshock, to help keep the environment/mood, but a Rapture LBP level....wow. im just so, so happy they brought that paintgun in, really made the level work. kinda mean that people'll have to buy this to have access to that tool, but i predict a lotta levels made later on that hinge on its use as a new dynamic.

Newtype Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 that....was so freakin' awesome. i cant believe id not seen that, im all excited for this pack now. and its out for christmas or so, i think. Japan gets the MGS4 LittleBigPlanet bonanza on Christmas Day. But America? America gets them a couple days early, on December 23. Make preparations. Individual characters are $2 each, the four-character pack is $6. And the big-ass level pack? It's $6, which is a steal considering it comes with a bonus character (a soldier dude) and a ton of junk for your LBP levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtype Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 Quick question If we're getting a Metal Gear Solid level to tie in with the Old Snake sackboy does this mean we're getting an FFVII level to tie in with the Sephiroth sackboy.

the division of joy Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 This game is proof i need to stop hyping games up to myself. I really can't get into it whatsoever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted December 21, 2008 Author Share Posted December 21, 2008 That's a shame, man. if the beta didnt do it for you, i cant imagine the final product woudlve - you not a fan of platformers? Newt - we can only hope there's a J-E-N-O-V-A level or something. you buying the MGS pack? cause...holla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the division of joy Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Thing is, i really liked the beta. I just find myself not really enjoying this. Its odd that... I can't really put my finger on what it is exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted December 21, 2008 Author Share Posted December 21, 2008 well, the single player's got more levels. the multi is just endless, and i hear they're doing crazier shit these days now that the moderation's not as heavy-handed. friend of mine said searching for top-rated levels is easier with the latest patch too. if you want, i can link/send you to the levels i really dug. you gotta try that galaga one, amongst a few others.

the division of joy Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 I'll probably give them a shot in the new year and see how i feel, i'm balls deep in Farcry 2 at the moment. also, check the SS thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jables Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 You wanna talk about hard-to-access games... Far Cry 2's pretty mehtastic. Best part of it was the preorder bag I managed to wrangle a month & a half after it's release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
