LBP raped my childhood. Before then Sackboys were innocent little things, now they're corporate whores for big corporations.

FUCK YOU, MM. FUCK YOU SONY.

You can suck my big, hairy, knitted, 100% lambswool cock. That's a long complicated story in itself, all I can say is don't get too close to goats on the highlands - there aren't many emergency surgery units around.

HAHA. 9. What crap. Gears 2 will be a 10 because at least in that game you get to shoot some shit!! Fucking PS3 pussies.

I knew this game would suck. Played it at ma mates, girlfriends, dads, sons, crack dealers house and it was well shit. No online multiplayer. What a waste of time!

I'm new. If anyone wants to do ed shots some time add me to xbox. GT: lxxSniperizingExpertxxl

Too right Psycho.
You would thing they would deliver a finished fucking game rather than get the player to make their own shitty levels.

A great score, although considering Eurogamer's criminal handling of MGS4, I wouldn't be surprised if this should actually be a ten. MGS4 is without a doubt the finest game so far of this generation. Xbox owners will disagree but that's because the game will never come out for their system.

Go, LBP, go!

9/10......10/10.....3/10.....

The "review" score for this game will be always be subjective and totally dependant on what the user takes out of it.

I for one am looking forward to it and can understand Eurogamers comments regarding accessibility in create mode.

Alot of you really need to grow up.....

Roll on 24th!!!

Nice review Oli.

However, ironically, I was expecting an 8/10 or even a 7/10 from the text of the review itself. You seemed to sum up the various parts as "not actually that great" (platforming, mp, creating).

Is it a case of a game that's better than the sum of its parts? Or is it because it's so unique that it deserves a high score for that alone?

Good review. I mean, if you read the text, you can't argue with the fact that the game is GREAT (but doesn't deserve a 10).

Playing this game gave me a headache because of all the technical issues, the massive tearing and low resolution really hurt my eyes. The fact it controls like pancakes sizzling in butter, melting slowly over their brown-bubbled mass, ever thickening to a perfect size... then you add that sweet, sweet, genuine Canadian maple syrup.

Just saying. Plus, it's like 640x480 res upscaled to 1080p? That sucks. I'm going to wait for it to come out on Xbox - it's only a matter of time, because it'll flop so hard it'll make Sarah Palin look like a genuine Malaysian.

Not bad.
Still not fussed about it, but that's not the game's fault, just mine. I'm trying to get games out of my system.

Looks like posting the review at midnight doesn't stop the children from getting into the comments thread. Oh well...

Can't wait to pick this up. Oodles of charm. Good review Oli.

sweet review but was it based on the beta? It's clearly not the final version judging by the reviewers admission search features were missing that would be in the release version.

Yeah, great review. 9/10 is a great score for the game, I don't know why people are moaning so.I guess we can expect this level of stupidity to appear within the Fable 2 review comments as well then?

I've been looking forward to Fable 2 for years, so that will take priority over LBP since the dates are so close (Same release date I think?) but after playing the Beta, I really enjoyed it, so I will certainly pick this up eventually!

So no 10/10 eh?, Halo 3 is still better. MGS4 was a big old flop, and so is the "other" big PS3 game of 2008. 2008 Year of the PS3...lol, the game is a flop, it's official.

For all the PS3 fans that will post after this message I say this to you. Better luck in 2009, Xbox 360 beat you down and made you cry in 2008. FFXIII goes to 360, Tekken 6 goes to 360. MGS4 and LBP flop on the only review site that matters. Gears of war 2 will show you how to reach the high scores you dream of every night while you stroke your Blu-ray thingy,

I'm off to bed, this score is going to keep my smiling all day tomorrow, why?, because Halo 3 scored better. Every one of your tears makes me smile PS3 owners, so cry , cry like you've never cried over a review score before. Remember all the nights you looked at LBP , getting your hopes up for a good game. Well now those hopes and dreams are gone so tell us how it feels.Think of how butt hurt you are right now, let it all out PS3 owners,

so much floppage, this will not end well.

Im really struggling to understand the negativity directed here despite the feedback from the beta....and soooo many of you probably looked at it and thought "that looks pretty cool".....

IF it is not your cup of tea then FFS please go back and play Halo with its 10/10 status. I actually like Halo immensely and still have it should anyone accuse me of trolling/fanboyism

Nice review but I disagree with the gripes on the last page. Making great levels really isn't hard at all. Slightly bemused by that comment. It only takes a few hours of playing around to become very adept at adding to what you have and you find everything whizzing along. The z-axis can be fairly fussy, so maybe some sort of option when creating a level to set the stage to be one, two or three layers deep would be good. To be honest though, any criticism aimed at it being too hard for casual players to make a level is null and void. They've tried to make designing levels as user friendly as possible but ultimately the only thing impeding good level design is the user's imagination.

And complaining that there are things available to the user that they wouldn't think to use is like complaining that there are too many colours to draw pictures with.

I heard that 360 is getting a port of this game. only it will have guns and blood and online multiplayer. Everything on xbox is better. PS3 gets crap version of everything.

The 360 version of this will get a 10 and I will laugh.

I would have given the game an 11/10 ... a 9/10 for being an awesome, physics based platformer with a lovely art style and great online and offline 4 player mutliplayer, then a 10/10 for the user created levels which are already so incredible in the short beta, and then an 11/10 for the create aspect being so awesome all by itself that I'm totally hooked on it

I must be a genius though, for being able to use it at all, apparently ... and this is obviously the part where I (and I'm sure many others) am going to disagree with even the very respectible game that LBP is ... for if LBP can't get a 10, then no game deserves a 10. In my humble opinion, anyway.

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.

9/10 seems very fair from what I played at Leipzig (there were like 10 lives per checkpoint there though, wtf?).

The biggest crux of this game is the 3 layers of depth, it doesn't bother you a huge ammount in the main game, but in the creation mode, I found it a huge pain. Keeping it simple, I think, would've been the way to go.
