LittleBigPlanet is the most creative and imaginative game of this generation
Says who? That's a simple matter of opinion. Physics-based gameplay is definately nothing new.
Multiplayer, level creation, and character customization have all been around since the 5th console generation or earlier.
Actually, these all actually predate modern video games. Multiplayer-oh god, even animals play games together. Physics- Mouse Trap. Character customization- Monopoly. Custom levels- D&D
If you want to get technical, these things seriously all predate written language. People played games with one another, made places in which to play games, and dressed themselves up however they wanted. Yay cavemen! And physics is a part of just about any sport, and I'm fairly certaint physics have existed at least as long as the universe has existed.
and easily has the best graphics and art style to date.
LAAAAAAAAWL
What are you even talking about? The best graphics of any game ever? In a technical standpoint, that goes to Crysis, I think anyone could tell you that. And the art style, to me, does not look terribly interesting. To me it looks like a nicer-looking Pikmin art style.
Not only does it use a regular controller, but it's on the ever-so-horrible PS3, you know, that $600 paperweight you Nintendrones always talked about?
And why the hell it isn't on the 360 as well is beyond me. It would sell much better, no doubt. All the PS3 owners I know are retards who wouldn't buy a "cutesy" game like this.
And there's nothing really wrong with the Wiimote. Ok, waggle does gets old, but the pointer still provides fresh new ways to play.
This game is wonderful, not only for the great way they threw together a bunch of already-existing gameplay elements from different games and great presentation
fixed'
but also for the fact that it points a really huge middle finger at nintendo fans. They have nothing like this, and never will, because their system is just a money maker for Nintendo. It does NOTHING to push the industry forward.
Now this is just shallow and silly.
Think about it. Nintendo is working to lure casual gamers into gaming. if they can get these people hooked, and turn the casual gamer into actual gamers, gaming can continue to grow as an industry, and more people will play games. More people play games, making games becomes more profitable. More games are made, and more competition ensues, and games will continue to innovate.
Oh, and I already have a game on the wii vaguely similar to this. Physics-based gameplay? Multiplayer? Level creation? It's called Elebits (Eledees in the UK) . It's quite fun.
