For me LBP has been a game I like a lot more in theory (thinking about it, or talking about it) than in practice (actually playing it).

Listen to Wu-Tang and watch Kung-Fu

There's one large problem with the campaign: the physics. Nyaa

Ugh that large spinning circle on the last level...I still haven't passed it. Sad

That was such an awesome level, yeah it was hard but so well done.

Again there is a story campaign with a start and ending. No need to ever get online.

Yeah, but everything I've heard about the story mode is negative.  I won't regurgitate what I've heard.  Keep in mind I absolutely fuckin' suck at 2d platformers to start with. (Never finished a 2dmario or sonic yet).

There is neither a face nor a palm large enough for people who watch me play old sonic and mario games.  It's truly hilarious.  In mario I putter along like an old lady and when I jump it looks like a turtle playing hopscotch, I'm so careful not to hit one of the bad guys, and then I do anyway.  In Sonic, it's the sound of rings constantly bouncing out of my body.

It's something I just can't do. (yet).

Beta blowout!

All the videos are in this youtube channel, here are just a few (taken from gaf):



http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSfOUfa2Bt0

Creatinator + Bouncepads = Crude Double-Jump (actually multi-jump)


I bet we're going to see some crazy supermetroid-esque type games.


Go Kart Racing looks awesome & frustrating

This looks so much like RC Pro for NES -

And attempt at creating a "town" ala Assassin's Creed -

Laser pidgeon!

Does your game have a laser pidgeon, no. LBP2 does. LBP2 wins.

The videos are mostly rough levels as expected from the beta but oh so much potential.

Quiet you. Imagine going to the greatest variety show on Earth, you have the widest arrange of acts you can think of. Navigating LBP is just like that.

I watched the final of AGT before I wrote that so it was fresh in my mind. I can't believe Fighting Gravity and that little opera girl lost. Still the singer dude was amazing.

Anyway yeah it is kind of like that, if the stage sucks instead of buzzing you quit the stage. You will find shitty ones but you will find those that you want to give a standing ovation to.

Growing
Swap between powers on the fly

Now those two are game changers. Now we can have power ups. This opens doors to Metroid or Zeldaish kinds of experiences.
