Description

The LittleBigPlanet experience starts with players learning about their character’s powers to interact physically with the environment. There are places to explore, creative resources to collect and puzzles to solve – all requiring a combination of brains and collaborative teamwork. As soon as players begin their creative skills will grow and they will soon be ready to start creating and modifying their surroundings – the first step to sharing them with the whole community.

Characters have the power to move anything in this glued and stitched-together 3D landscape; they have the power to design, shape and build both objects and entire locations for others to view and play. There’s no complicated level editor; all of these skills can be learned by simply playing the game.

Creativity is part of the gameplay experience and playing is part of the creative experience. Players can make their world as open or as secretive to explore as they like. When it’s ready, they can invite anyone within the LittleBigPlanet community to come and explore their patch – or can go and explore everybody else’s.

Features:
  • Play the game, learn the skills and then find your own way to play. There isn’t a set solution to anything – you live LittleBigPlanet however you want to.
  • Create your own content – customize your character and build your own locations. You have the power to rearrange anything in this unbelievably tactile landscape.
  • Build, move, create, collaborate – then share content with friends or publicly by inviting the whole world to come and visit your own location on LittleBigPlanet.
  • There’s not just one way to play. Players craft their own individual experience
  • Unlimited possibilities for user-created content – players can customize everything: their characters, the landscape around them and their own patch on LittleBigPlanet
  • Players discover and win new skills and items to aid them on their creative journey
  • Initial levels will be provided – endless others will be user-generated on a global scale. LittleBigPlanet will change every day as players contribute their own levels
  • Online and offline multiplayer modes – play alone, work as a team or get competitive
  • LittleBigPlanet global community for players to get involved with: includes player comments, rankings and easy communication with new and existing friends

Review by Marshall on 1st October, 2008
"Well worth the price of admission"
Been playing the BETA, and the game is everything you've heard it will be, creative, innovative and really fun.

Best thing about it is just coming up with an idea, then spending hours trying to get whats in your mind on the screen, and working the way you want it to. You can explore other peoples work in a really simple way which means endless hours of fun.

It sounds cheesy to say but the possibilities really are limitless, unmatched replay value and what looks to be a strong community, even for the BETA phase.

All in all, good times. Buy it, you won't regret it.

Review by David on 2nd October, 2008
"Played the Beta and it's awesome."
This is not a game to be missed. I've been playing the beta for the last three days and it is an amazing game. First off it's so creative, witty and original that it's a breath of fresh air in a stagnant gaming industry. It's incredibly funny with Stephen Fry's ever awesome narration and creating anything you want is a possibility, heck I was even playing LBP version of Wipeout HD on there XD, anything is possible. If you own a PS3 you NEED this game, don't think, buy.

Review by Darcy on 18th November, 2008
"Fun for both young and old"
Definitely the most age irrelevant game available on the PS3. I've shared this game with age groups spanning from 17 to 41 and recently with a 7 year old. The "oldies" were a bit hesitant at first and within 15-20 minutes were right in to it (all being long-time gamers themselves). I got in 'trouble' with the parents of the child as she wouldn't shut up about it. :-)

I believe this to be the most sofa friendly multi-player game available on the PS3 at the moment. By that I mean that there are not many *good* games on the PS3 where you can have four people sitting down all playing at the same time and interacting with each other. The main difference here is that you all share the one screen rather than having a split-screen configuration - much easier on the eyes.

Definitely well worth the purchase for both young and old.

Review by Andrew on 14th October, 2008
"It's the final count-down!"
The PS3 system seller Little Big Planet is out on 24th October; there has been a lot of noise made about this game for over 18 months and what's exciting for us gamers is that the people in the press who get to see it every now and then as it's being developed and get hands on time with it are still really excited about what this huge game can do. The game has 50 or more levels to play through in single player or on line with upto 4 players, plus, what has got most of the attention about LBP is that the tools that were used to create the levels are also available to all us gamers! You can create your own levels and publish them for everyone else to use.

If you own a PS3 and you like having a laugh and fun playing games with your friends, buy Little Big Planet.

Review by Daniel on 13th October, 2008
"Never gets old"
This game is a must have if you have a ps3! It never gets old because of all the user created levels that are online! I think this game is going to have a cult following! I think it will get a 9.0 or above from IGN when it's reviewed. I would be money on it!
