    I received this game free with my new PS3, and I thought it might be cool to play, I was completely wrong. For starters, the game is completely boring, because there is no plot or anything. The only thing I learned is that I can dress up a sack person any way I choose. After that, the game becomes tedious and boring. Playing the same boards over and over trying to find objects that are hidden away is the perfect cure for insomnia. I tried playing online a few times, and I actually played a board where all I had to do was run to the right, and pass a bunch of words on the screen, how exciting!! The game play itself is pretty limited. The sack person jumps like it has 80lbs of lead in its pockets. Maybe people who never leave their homes will enjoy this game, but for me, i will be trading it in for a good game, like NHL 10 or Saints Row

    LittleBigPlanet is a great game, enjoyable even by people who don’t normally like video games. It is classified as a “puzzle platformer”, meaning each level is a puzzle to solve (what to do next isn’t always obvious) and it is a platformer, meaning you jump to and from suspended platforms or over obstacles etc. Personally I didn’t care much for the puzzle aspect, and for people like me there are videos of each level at YouTube, which I watched when I got stuck.

    The scenes in this game are beautiful, the music is wonderful, and the physics is mostly realistic, and the overall beauty and experience offered by this game reminds me of the “It’s a small world” ride at Disneyland. The game is enjoyable by kids and adults alike, and the whole family can play together if you have more than one controller.

    There are 25 awesome levels (there are eight “Creator Curators”, and there are three levels per Creator Curator except the last which has four, adding up to 25). The description of this game says there are 50 levels, but that is probably counting the mini levels (mostly useless) and the included user-created levels. I didn’t like the user-created levels — some of them are playable, but they didn’t have the Disney-esque experience of the levels created by the game makers themselves.

    One thing I didn’t like about the game is that the depiction of USA in this game isn’t that great. A construction site, a car wrecking yard, people speaking in ungrammatical English etc. LittleBigPlanet was made by a UK company.

  3. I purchased this for my 6-yr-old son, my entire family is addicted to it and we have given the bug to another family. Fun on all levels, challenging as well.

    I love playing games but what I enjoy most about gaming is having people you enjoy playing games with. I’ve been looking for a good Playstation 3 multi-player game and this is definitely the best one out there right now in my opinion. My wife is not an avid gamer but as a young teenager her and her sisters did play Donkey Kong on the Super Nintendo and she loved it. So when I saw screen shots of this game the side-scrolling action looked like something that would be familiar to her and simple enough to play and that was enough for me to buy the game.

    The entire concept of the game is quite unlike anything I’ve played. The whole idea of creating costumes, placing stickers, custom levels, makes this game appear more to the female segment than it otherwise might. But at the same time, the endless levels, side-scrolling action, puzzles, and difficult game play will not disappoint a hard-core gamer. The most amazing thing I’ve found about this game is how much of a party game it is in our family.

    We will get a four-player game going when our family gets together after Sunday dinner and everyone spends about the first 5 minutes customizing their character and then we all start playing a level together. Because there are so many save points throughout levels, even beginners who die quite frequently still stay engaged as their sack person comes back to life at each save point. The blend of creativity, great multi-player functionality, and the ability of this game to hold the attention of seasoned gamers is what makes this game a knock-out in my opinion. Just last night my wife was saying that she wanted to play Little Big Planet for a half of an hour. And if she, as a non-gamer, is asking to play a game without me having to coax her into it then that means the game itself is really, really good.

  5. Good video game. Excellent to enjoy with family. The levels are fun and the best is that the game never gets boring. Additional content is quite good and makes you have fun outside the traditional challenges of the game
