Little Big Planet (PS3)
from Sony

Editorial Review:

Little Big Planet is a unique game combining an amazing platform adventure with a huge social community enabling gamers to play, create and share their gaming.

If you’ve been concerned that the new generation of consoles has had relatively little in the way of new ideas, then LittleBigPlanet should be the game to restore you faith. It’s difficult to describe properly, which is a good thing, because it means it’s very different from the norm.

Peculiar machines like this are the norm in LittleBigPlanet

Although combat is a minor part of the game, there are some huge bosses

Creating your own levels from scratch is as easy as playing them

Objects can be made out of anything from wood to sponge, metal, and felt

Amazing graphics bring the world of the main character, known as Sackboy, and his fabric-coated pals to life with realistic physics and a stunning level of detail. Played with friends it’s a great puzzle adventure, as you co-operate and compete across each level.

The game’s trump card though is its customisation, not just the characters themselves but the whole game. It’s extremely easy to create your own levels, and the best fun is had simply setting up areas for mucking around and then sharing them online with other people.

Key Features

• Unreal reality: There’s never been a game that looks like this, with ultra cute characters but realistically modelled physics and materials from wood to sponge.
• Co-op fun: Co-operate with up to three friends, as you run, jump, and swing around each level and overcome the cunning puzzles and dangerous enemies.
• Everything changes: Every single element of the game is fully customisable from your player character to each of the levels and all of the objects within them.
• Mad scientist: Create your own unique levels and change the properties of any objects to make Sackboy mincing traps or huge machines that can move whole levels.
• Eye see you: Use the EyeToy camera to further customise your game with special stickers that allow you to add your own photos to any level.

• this is what we have been missing
  The only game you will play and be amazed at how simple concepts, are the most fun - the levels created will not only inspire you but when it comes to creating your own stage there is a wierd revelation that this is what has been missing. this is what every one and their mama has wanted to do since the birth of gaming which is create and share their game ideas.

• Fantastic
  Extremely quirky and original, just what I wanted to play after so many "serious" video games! A breath of fresh air to play...

• Little Big Wonder
  The world has gone crazy for a little chap made of cloth in a game. Sackboy, the hero of Little Big Planet, is everywhere and people love him.
  Little Big Planet is undoubtedly Sony's finest game on the Playstation 3 so far. It's not without its flaws, but these are overwhelmingly overshadowed by the fresh new ideas and the addictive user created gameplay.
  At its most basic, Little Big Planet is a 2.5D Platform game. There is a lot of Jumping, Collecting, Avoiding, Lifting, plus Drops and slides... more info
