| » All About LittleBigPlanet on ActionTrip | |
Each level you've come up with can co-exist with a choice of premade levels, incorporated by Media Molecule. You'll be able to share your inventions with others, in addition to swapping new backgrounds. For the time being, the developers revealed a cemetery level, a serene Japanese garden and a dusty desert setting. All of these were designed by mixing photorealism with stylish and highly detailed 3D graphics. Charming character models were clearly created with care and precision and they blend in with the wacky ambience, which, once again, may be altered according to your liking.

As for multiplayer features, we've learned there's going to be a four-player co-op, but Sony is also promoting the possibility of creating and then uploading levels to the PlayStation Network. Of course, other players may download and rate these levels, which is another expected, yet welcomed, feature. What's more, LBP was designed with VoIP support and every single character is actually lip-synched, which, I'm sure will please most gamers and may lead to some entertaining moments.
Adding to the vast number of customization options, the developers also decided to allow players to include their own photos as textures for in-game backgrounds. After that, it's up to you to choose which objects are placed in the area. You can incorporate anything you like, ranging from decals, metal grates, bolts of fabric, posts, flags, etc.
At present, the developers are shooting for a 2008 release and we're still waiting to find out where Media Molecule plans to draw the line between "actual game content" and user-made content. Apparently, their goal is to deliver a fun community based game, where players have plenty of room to create and share their ideas.
Recently, a public beta was mentioned, although there's still no official word on that. We know Sony is currently going through a closed beta for PlayStation Home, so a beta for LittleBigPlanet could very well be the next move.

| I share that particular sentiment. There's something about damn clowns that makes you wanna run for your life. Ever since the movie "IT" I've had nightmares about clowns... As for LittleBigPlanet, it sure as hell looks like fun to me. Dunno, we'll have to wait I guess. |

| It doesn't look fun for one very important reason. It counts on me doing shit. I hate that. I want to be entertained, not made to make crap. I'm not creative, I want to waste time. Hence, no fun. |

| Shame it's a PS3 exclusive, because it looks like a pretty cool idea. I've always liked games where you basically create what you want (Gary's Mod, Roller Coaster Tycoon, etc.) and open-ended games in general (like Oblivion). | ||

| It looks fun, but I don't fancy playing it with random people online. I also don't know anybody secure enough in their masculinity to play this with me. If I had a PS3, that is. | ||

| this looks really funky and cool, but i still dont really understand it...are there absolutely no objectives? you talk about getting money and overcoming obstacles, but never really describe them... | ||

| It's still uncertain. Like I said, they haven't drawn the line yet between pre-made and user-made content. Let's just wait and see. | ||

| Good thing 2lions didn't write the preview. Phew. | ||

| Even though 2Lions' comment was most likely a joke, I actually agree with it. If the video is any indication of what the game is about I would get bored within half an hour, simply because the creative part of my brain doesn't work. |

| It was a little over-the-top in style, but not a joke per se. In other words, I actually mostly mean what I say in that comment. | ||

| so its just a matter of brain ded here....or imagination 0 cut in half..... | ||
