*/Part platformer, part content creation tool, LittleBigPlanet comes

from a group of ex-Lionhead developers who sought to bring their unique

sense of humour to the PlayStation 3. While a good part of the game is

actually built as a frustratingly difficult 2D platformer, the core part

of //LittleBigPlanet is actually a complex series of tools that let

players make their own levels and experiments. Think //Garry's Mod for

consoles.

 

That freedom and continually expanding database of content is a great

thing for the PlayStation 3 and while games like / /Left 4 Dead can

claim serious amounts of replayability through the AI Director system,

//LittleBigPlanet puts that to shame by letting players make whole new

levels and puzzles in just a few flicks of the trigger fingers and

thumbs. That's something that no other console has!

 

In fact, not only does no other console do it quite like /

/LittleBigPlanet, but no other console really //could. //LittleBigPlanet

thrives on the unique features of the PS3, such as free online

connection and the option to plug in a USB keyboard, making it one of

the few must-have titles for Sony's monolithic console./

*Cheers guys!
