Good to know you shagged my mother Avarice, I felt a bit bad after shagging yours and yes your mother does anal ;)

Halo 3 10, Mario Galaxy 10, Braid 10. It seems that there's a ton of better games out there on other systems. Dumb whiny bitches like Avarice might cry about teh bias" and "teh moneyhats"but that's to be expected when the thick cunts got tricked into buying a blu ray player with no games, like I said natural selection

and Privatejoker the PS3 IS a shit failure with no games. All it's gotten from day one is crap 360 ports and shit exclusive like Resistance fail of sony.

Nah Avarice she seemed a little wrecked after you finished with her so I moved on to your sister (filthy) and then your mother. I think your dad is nearly finished with grandma though so he may be calling on you soon too.

It's funny that it's a joke post now that everyone has laughed at you for so long. Funny in that it's not funny at all and clearly a pathetic attempt to salvage some face.

I wish i had a time machine to take each 1 of u to the future moment u get a PS3 and finallly realise what you're missing (i couldn't afford PS3 so had to trade in xbox otherwise would own both if only they'd fucking release Alan Wake now a pc buy if its any good)
What i take great pleasure in is knowing when fable 2 and gow2 get their scores whatever the fuck they r ( means nothing to me ) I certainly wont be wasting my time trolling the threads. Just shows how jealous and attention seeking these little xbots are.

Eurogamer has a rep for being harsh critics, but they're really not. They just happen to use the entire 10 point scale. A 9 is a really great score. Even Oli's controversial 8/10 MGS4 review sounded really positive to me. If you actually read the text, they're generally no harsher than a site like IGN that will completely rag on a game and then give it a 7.7 (Seriously. Read their Assassin's Creed review. It doesn't sound anything like a near 8).

Anyway, Little Bit Planet sounds better than I thought. I'm a big fan of platformers and love the art style of the game, but I never had much interest in creating levels anyway, so the fact that the level editor is so in-depth and complex bothers me none. I'm glad to see that the single-player offline stuff is great, and from what I've seen of clips from the beta, there's a lot of interesting things users have been doing with the game beyond just generic platform stuff. Anyways, I'm pretty excited about this game now.

I love playing game, I truly do, but I'm embarrased to be associated in any way with some of you. Why do gamers, in general, feel the urge to be so hostile to others and start petty arguments. 9 out of 10 is a fantastic score and the review itself, you know the writing and stuff, was also extremely positive and pointed out problems that are apparent. Eurogamer aren't biased towards Microsoft, Nintendo or Sony. They review games and that's the end of it. Jesus, Gears of War got an 8. If you like the look of this game then buy it and hopefully enjoy it. If you enjoy it then that's all that matters, not whether it's better than MGS4, Halo3 or any other game.

^^^ Well said that man

Some really sad, bigotted fan boys posting in this thread. Grow up and realise that 9/10 means a game is superb. If you haven't got a PS3, don't bitch about it by slagging its games off when there are no grounds to do so.

Too many dumb fuck schoolboys post here.

I can't understand why sites like Eurogamer allow mentally challenged people to comment on articles. In order to successfully register, people must fill in an IQ test. If their IQ is lower than let's say 110 then they're not welcome and they receive an instant IP ban. Damn this site could've been so much better! Who's with me on this?

The FURIOUS NERD RAGE!!! in this topic is keeping me awake, please keep it down.

Also my first post in this topic has found its way over to Neogaf and System wars. It's got the LBP fans clenching their butt cheeks in rage. It was a joke post kids. I like to throw a live grenade into comments sections like this, then back away and watch the madness. It's not me who is mad, it's you for taking the obvious bait and letting it get you worked up. These are video games ,if other people's opinions on them make you angry you need to take a long long look in the mirror and change your life. A good start would be cutting down on games and gaming forums.

Seriously...

Important quote, "It's the future and the past of videogames, rolled into one."

That kind of deserved praise lives longer than a 9 out of 10.

But yeah, that doesn't mean it isn't finicky and a little difficult to make great levels. But EG gave credit where credit is due. The thousands that have participated in the beta making beautiful stages would never have had the same chance otherwise. And giving this toy to a child with no sense of what it means to "waste time" the imagination engine that this game breathes is what makes it special.

My god this site is full of retarded fucks.


On topic:

9/10 is a great score. But concidering EG gave Halo 3 and GTA-IV a perfect 10 it goes to show they don't really know what they're doing.

I'd give the reviewer an 8 out of 10 for this review.

LittleBigPlanet pre-ordered.

I have to believe this review was done just to get all the SOny/LBP fans to come and trash the review? The reason the game got a 9/10 because the writers here assumes the level creator will be too hard for gamers, and only a handful of levels will be really deep gameplay? Wow--they have a crystal ball there not telling us about?

And that's what makes it not receive the same score as other high-profile games?


Just to be clear, I understand the review completely. And I share the same gripe, my point is, what LBP does right is so enormous, that it shouldn't be placed into the 9 category. No game is a 10, but you honor the team for they did right, LBP should be right up there with Mario Galaxy, Halo 3 (which I thought wasn't that great) etc etc...There's just no excuse, especially when most of the gripes could be fixed with downloadable content.

Omnicloud you are an idiot. Why is it so fucking hard for people to understand that a 9 is an exceptional score, and that to compare LBP to BioShock/Halo3 whatever is ridiculous?

@JayScott--I edited, read the last part of my comment. I agree that a 9 is incredible, but let's be honest, 10 is associated with classic am I right? The flaws in LBP are minor when it comes to whole package. For other titles that's been overlooked, why not this one? When what it does right is such a huge deal?

You can't tell me there isn't gonna be copies of this game in 2 or 3 years after release? It's a big deal in the gaming industry. It's something new to get into, I think a game like this deserves to be put in the spotlight.

Is that not reasonable?

"The game's Story mode is a suite of some 20-odd levels made by Media Molecule that circumnavigate LittleBigPlanet's imaginary world."

Uh... why do other sites who've reviewed LittleBigPlanet say there are 50, not 20 single player story mode levels? Meristation comes to mind.

I think they have taken into account the fact that so much of the content that will make this game the game it can be is yet to be created - maybe in 6 months time if the community has really taken to content creation then a 10 might be well deserved - as it is it is possibly a bit content light in terms of immediate gameplay.

@Jay Scott--I feel you on that one...maybe a disclaimer at the end or something would have been better, but if that's honestly the reason for the score, I wouldn't even disagree with it. I'm in the beta and I can say my level isn't exactly the most innovative lol...It's a fun 60 seconds though that's for sure.

but, then you had this guy/girl who made a God of War level and it was fantastic!!! I don't know how the hell he did it? My little Pixel Junk Monsters race pale in comparison to his.

So, when you say the levels that are gonna make LBP the classic title that it has the potential to be aren't here yet--I know exactly what you mean. I think they should have alluded to this more in the review, and Now I take back my outburst earlier.

With that thought process in mind, I'd say a 9 is pretty fair. I just don't agree with giving GTA4 a 10 (There was so much wrong with that game man it's not even funny. GTA4's popularity and it being the "cool' game, give it's critical praise, because the actual game is not even anything special--I didn't even finish the SP! Story was freakin cookie-cutter gansta crap..let me not get started on that one)

Nice comment man...tks for clearing that up for me

Looks like a great game but not enough to sway me to get a PS3 at this point. Great review nonetheless and will look forward to playing this at a mates.

This talkback is like a hacker honeypot to draw in potential 'ignore posters'.

God, this thread is an embarrassment to every gamer, PS and Xbox. Makes Apologie look mature and balanced.

Interesting review. Got to say, it seems somewhat harsh, and the suspicion of controversy courting for hits looms large.

Of course it's complicated to invoke all of the features that LBP is capable of - you can't expect to put a physics based platformer together with a couple of clicks. The crucial point that Oli didn't say was whether you can put together a simple level easily, which all the demos say you can. Youtube's popularity is based entirely on being able to do both simple crap for your mates and full blown video production, and LBP should be the same.

(And not being able to use your own pics etc. is not a big deal, and obvious and smart, to (a) minimise the inevitable p0rn abuse, and (b) minimise the copyright dangers.)

You can't judge Youtube on the quality of video transmission, or the ease of video editing software - it misses the point. It's the *potential* being placed in user's hands that makes it work. LBP is the same. In fact, the rules of MMOs reviews should apply, because LBP will live or die based on the content the community comes up with (and I have every faith it will be spectacular). A re-review in a month or so would be in order.

I'd give it 10/10 for pure b*lls, charm and originality - which the much discussed Halo3 had none of.

I like chocolate spread on toast, Cheese cake, Unicorns, Seymour Duncan Pickups, Girls, Long walks on the beach and good games.

This looks like a very good game..... but I dont own a ps3 which means Ill have to settle for some Cheese cake to ease the envy.

:(
If only I had a Unicorn

(an Unicorn / a Unicorn ?????) now Im confused.

Having spent quite a bit of time in the beta I would say this is very fair perhaps a little too fair. I found the level building stuff just terribly dull. That said kudos to those that put the time and effort into some of the user levels I played. Looking forward to the full release.

"Next year ps3 has no chance 2...

letīs See

Forza3
Alan Wake
Splinter Cell Conviciotn
Halo 3 Recon
N3 2
New Ipīs on e3
MAss Effect2

Sorry Ps3 owners but ur console is not at xbox level...ahah "

So what your saying is...

Gran Tourismo 5 isnt going to fucking PWN Forza 3? LOL
Alan Wake has not even proved to be anything of major interest yet, not from what I have seen.
Splinter Cell is coming out on PS3
Halo 3 Recon will be cool. I'll give you that
N3 2?? WTF is this?
Mass Effect 2 is now owned by EA...which gives it a huge chance of being made on PS3.

and for the low point of your dumb post

New Ip's at E3

Are you fucking kidding?

OMFG!

New IP's....

It's nice to know.. you looking forward to new IP's...

Outside of Final Fantasy XIII how many new Ip's did MS announce at this years E3?

hmmmm oh, that's right none.

Your major announcement. Is that you are getting a PS3 game, 1 year later.

Next year will be shit for MS.

Dont kid yourself.

PS3

God of War 3
Killzone 2
Gran Tourismo 5

They are 3 game of a many I am already looking forward to next year.

Piss off you fucking troll.

You couldnt even make a good call.
