    Just gotten started on this game and am actually quite hooked. there's lots in it to keep you going and I haven't even purchased any DLC yet.

    I still rate this game highly, but it's in dire need of some official MM-developed level packs to introduce some new features and bring lapsed payers (like myself) back to the fold. Sure, there are some great user-created levels out there, but I think MM has perhaps been guilty of letting the community do all the work whilst they churn out costume and sticker packs.

    The Metal Gear Solid level pack was brilliant and LBP deserves more of that sort of thing.
