Its existence has been known for a few weeks now, but now it's official: LittleBigPlanet 2 is being worked on, and seems already working very well if this great trailer is any indication!
Never was a fan, i mean i liked the social aspect and graphics but thought it should've been a download game - there are a lot better platformers out there. Though user created content is great, what am i really paying for? This one looks like even more of the same philosophy, if it's half priced i'm in!
I think some people need to read a little bit about how some of the new mechanics work before writing it off as nothing more than an update pack. It's easy to watch the trailer and take allot of it for granted, just the ability to create your own NPC's and enemies and programme there a.i is a huge addition. Also being able to map the sixaxis buttons and tilt to vehicles, machines, characters e.t.c completely changes the game.
the first LBP is one of my top 10 games this generation easily, maybe even top five. I thought it was so creative and more importantly, FUN. Also, it's the only game I've played that my girlfriend would literally beg me to put in the PS3. so that gets major points as well
I have no doubt they will make another outstanding game.
day one, freaking excited as hell, any game that can give you an infinate pool of content is A-ok in my book.
the main thing i love about this new one (that admitidly could have been patched into the first one) is the ability to link user created levels into series, alowing you to play every stage in order without having to go to the hub first. simple, but awesome addition. as is the ability to record your own sound and animate and "programme" AI. it's deffinately enough to warrent a sequel. i can't imagine they'd be able to just 'patch' this kinda stuff into the first game without breaking a lot of people's levels in the process.
I literally have no idea how they could release a content-pack with upgraded visuals and all these added features and not price it as a full game... what you guys smoking lol?

They video itself says that they'll work, did you watch it lol?
Oh come on the slightest patches fuck some things up when it comes to the community levels, there WILL be issues, but will they be ommunity splitting problems or not time will tell
i dont think there will be issues with moving stuff over to LBP2. by the way the devs have explained it they still seem to ve very seperate entities. you will simply have access to LBP stuff through LBP2. afterall, they havnt changed the physics or anything, that comes in when you start creating games through LBP2, and they can only be accessed through LBP2. there shouldnt be issues tbh.
