Posted October 5, 2008 Well I got on the beta last night and maybe played around for a couple of hours. I love it! I have played all the single player levels and a couple of user created levels and there are some really unventive things... One thing that I do feel at the moment is level design. I think even the story mode levels suffer from this is a lack of really tight design. This could because they are only tutorials and trying to show off functions which they do well. I think as amazing as a lot of user generated content is, levels do lack pacing, they are either too short or have a few really interesting sections and then they are bland. I'm not saying I can do anything better. It does seem though obviously without that touch as good as a lot of levels will be they will lack that pacing we would see in say a Mario. Having said there is still so much to love about this game, you can't possibly be offended by it and can't help but play with a big smile on your face... A few questions can you get Kratos to run in the beta? Secondly how do mics work in the game? can't seem to get mine to work, but had a guy speaking to me earlier...

Posted October 5, 2008 Mic seems to work randomly. Anyone sorted a solid method out? Same for most games I play tbh. If no-one talks for like 3 seconds it seems to disconnect. Random. The MGS level is awesome - can't wait for more of that one! And the Shadow of the Collosus level is awesome. Myself, Daft and Matt took an age to get the final boss 'killed' but it was really well done. The designer used the filters to great effect too. The green Hill Zone is great too Would be nice to give sackboy some roller skates or something to change the pacing of the levels (Mario had powerups for this etc...). So far, so very great!

Posted October 5, 2008 I've got to say this games brings such a smile to my face. Stephen Fry's commentary is excellent as well - his freindly, inoffensive voice really fits in well with the whole ambience of the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 6, 2008 I was up most of the night creating my LittleBigPlanet opus. It is a light puzzle platformer with a slight 'Legend of Zelda' feel. Nearly finished the 'dungeon' Then got to do the forest, kakariko village and tidy up some of the puzzles. This is someof the best gaming I have ever had.

Posted October 6, 2008 Hours somehow just go by while creating stuff. Working on a new level now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 6, 2008 Hours somehow just go by while creating stuff. Working on a new level now. Yeah the hours do just vanish, I am making my first level now... Watched this today; http://gamevideos.1up.com/video/id/21812 from the 1up Show they show some truly amazing levels...played the Houston we have a problem one, amazing with its awesome design ideas... also had already played the Wipeout HD level, is amazing. One thing they mention on this preview is that the number of items in the beta is tiny compared to the final game. My favourite level so though has to be one I found this morning whilst playing; Takeshi's Castle, tis fantastic. Love how completing levels gives you whatever items the designer decides can be up for grabs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 6, 2008 Takeshi's Castle is amazing Teacup bit in LBP was GENIUS!! I'm loving the level creation tool too. There are SO many tutorials and so much to learn though. But when you get into it it's sublime. I'm having trouble making arches work (to walk under) without them "jumping" up and down randomly - when it really should be ok. (Can't work it out tbh and it's annoying me.) But the sounds feature is brilliant. I stuck a good ten fart noises to objects and made them go up and down the scale from light fart to full on bear fart when you walked past. I then made 'Conkers bad fur day' trees (with eyes and sarcastic mouths) whom were all saying "scud" and "jeez!!" and "gas mask alert!" and "whoever smelt it dealt it" when you walked past. Toilet humour ftw!! Great game. Loving my little mario sackboy. Sticking stickers onto yourself in an aim to create clothes is a nice touch. This is Bernards Watch in videogame form :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 6, 2008 Well my levels up, I aint no shigsy so its not the best design, or original. If you have go let me know what you think, good or bad, I am all grown up now so I can take criticism. Its slightly like a Zelda game - hit this switch, open that gate, push block onto pressure pad ect... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
