Little Big Planet

[Big Stu]

Any interest in this game around here at all?

There's a great opportunity there to create a Dizzy themed level, the potential is HUGE. If you've got it (or not, search youtube) have a look for the Mirrors Edge, God Of War or Silent Hill levels to get an idea.

i'll be sure to get it,
its one of the only ps3 games i thought looked interesting before i bought one.

[Steven]

I've got the game.
And got to admit that I'm thoroughly impressed with it.
Endless possibilities with the level creation tools, giving you literally 1000s of levels to play online.

I've even already gone and created myself a Dizzy Sackboy already.
Admittedly it's just a Sackboy with cartoon eyes, his body painted white with his shoes and gloves painted red, topped off with a cowboy hat painted green... But I like its simplicity.

And my Dizzy Sackboy is always my Sackboy of choice for levels that involve adventure and exploring.

Any chance you could take a photo?

The missus has got me this for Christmas, looking forward to getting stuck in

And if anyone has the latest issue of the official PS3 mag in the UK, check out the culture page!

i've never heard of this.

I tell you Meph, where you are now is an enviable place to be.
My advice would be to keep as ignorant of this for as long as possible

When I saw the adverts and reviews for this 'Sackboy' I cringed in places i hadnt cringed before. I wont be giving this a go if I can help it, It looks NAFF!!!

But what the hey Im sure theres millions of 'sane' people out there who like that kind of thing.

Perhaps making a Dizzy level is Sackboys only route to salvation??

Steven,
It would be good if you can post us a pic/vid - After all, anything Dizzy related has to be good...

[Big Stu]

It's not until you play the game that it grips you, the level creation aspect is easily accessible, and the levels already thrown in are full of charm and never fail to raise a smile. There's certainly no sense to be found in passing a game over based on the marketing campaign, at least give it a go!

Also, i would get the feeling that Meph is being sarcastic, this game's been everywhere for months now!

[DizzyFanUK]

I'm still not sure about this lil planet thang..

when it comes to games i thought i was pretty open minded
Ive enjoyed games involving all manner of unusual characters such as elves, orcs, dragons, space aliens, robots, droids, comic book superheroes, slimey green blobs, giant marshmallow men, spinning blue hedgehogs and plumbers wearing racoon outfits - even walking Eggs

BUT i have my limits and draw the line at animated pieces of sack cloth

I mean why sack cloth?!? There are so many more fashionable not to mention, less itchy fabrics...

How about SilkGirl or maybe a game called, 'The hazey adventures of HempBoy'

Where does it end Ill take Eggs wearing Boxing Gloves any day...

[Steven]

I don't have any decent means of uploading videos or pictures from the game at the moment, at best I can try and take some pics with a digital camera but the quality will obviously be quite poor.

As for the itchy sack fabric complaint...
If it's any conselation, you can choose from a variety of fabrics, not just sack. Lol.
And yes, DizzyFanUK... Silkgirl is a possibile character design within LittleBigPlanet.

As for the tv adverts...
Don't get me started on them.
Personally I think Sony have done a very poor job of portraying what the game is about on them.

Also, i would get the feeling that Meph is being sarcastic, this game's been everywhere for months now!

Excuse me?


Never heard or seen it, and i don't recall any television adds or anything.. i not saying a tv add hasn't come on while I've been watching but that dones't necessary mean i payed any attention to it.. the little tv i do get to watch.

Its not stepped into my sights, until this topic.
