You can certainly tell that the person playing this isn't into creating.

fredrikpedersen4146d ago

I've probably played LBP2 over 300 hours, but Im not into creating

GribbleGrunger4146d ago

Yeah, I figured as much lol. It's just that you passed by so many materials a few times and I could tell they didn't interest you that much :)

abzdine4146d ago

there is a 2440hour trophy in LBP2 and Vita only for creating, and i think you need too long time to do that and in my case i dont have all that time even if i'd like to create something on this game.

ftwrthtx4146d ago

It isn't currently working for everyone for some reason.

SoundGamer4146d ago

Some people just don't know how to set it up. It unfortunately has a bit of a process to go through before you can actually start playing.

ftwrthtx4146d ago

Not sure what I'm doing wrong. My Vita works great with remote play so I know I can connect.

SoundGamer4145d ago

@ftwrthtx and anyone else having trouble setting up LBP 2 Cross-Controller. I ran into a lot of other people on YouTube with the problem. So I wrote up a guide.

Try following these steps:

First off: Make sure both your PS3 and PS Vita have the most up-to-date firmware running on it. If not, update your systems. In addition, make sure your remote play has been set up prior. If you need help with this, Google, PlayStation dot com, and YouTube are your friend. It's easy.

ALL INSTRUCTIONS ARE AVAILABLE ON THE PS3 and PS Vita if you take the time to read them. For those who do not, well, you can read this -

After purchasing the LBP 2 Cross-Controller pack on your PS3, these are the steps you'll need to take to get it up and running:

Download the LBP 2 Cross-Controller unlock from the PlayStation Network store.

After the pack has been downloaded, click on the bubble under your game menu (just like you would install any other downloaded item). At this point, it will prompt you to hook up your PlayStation Vita and run the content manager. Hook up your PlayStation Vita to your PS3 via USB. Once the systems are connected, click on "content manager" on your Vita. From there, follow the steps to connect your PS3 to your Vita and install the LBP 2 Cross-Controller content on your Vita. Once this is completed, you can disconnect your Vita from your PS3 and close the Content Manager.

You will note that a bubble is still on your PS3 for the LBP 2 Cross-Controller add-on. Click on the bubble and it will now install on your PS3.

Now you will need to go on your PS3 and launch LittleBigPlanet 2. If you have not already done so, a patch will be downloaded and installed (about 1GB) for the Cross-Controller compatibility.

Once LBP 2 has launched on your PS3 and you are in your Pod, press the square button to access your LBP pod menu via the on-screen controller (just like you're going to play any other game in LBP 2). From there, you should see "Cross-Controller" on the right side of your screen. Click it. Now it will ask you to pick up your PlayStation Vita and start the "Remote Play" app. On the "Remote Play" app, you will see "cross-controller." Click "Cross Controller."

Follow the on-screen instructions and click "next". The Vita and PS3 should start communicating automatically. An app of about 500MB will need to download and install on your Vita from the Remote Play Cross-Controller screen. This should happen automatically if you have followed all the other steps.

Once the app has downloaded, press the "PS" button on your Vita and the app should install. You will now see a new app on your Vita called, "LittleBigPlanet 2 Cross-Controller."

At this time, everything is ready for you to start playing. Hopefully you left your PS3 as it was. If not, make sure you're on LBP 2 on your PS3 and follow the steps mentioned before, once again to go to the "Cross-Controller" section of the game. If it's already there, you should see a "remote play" screen.

Now, go back to your PlayStation Vita and launch the LBP 2 cross-controller app from the Live Area. If everything is set up correctly, it will go right into the game and you can start playing.

Hope that helps!

THEYRE JUST COPYING THE WII U!!!

ftwrthtx4146d ago

Singstar has had a similar interface that dates back to the PSP.

jon12344146d ago

wooooo, look at all those disagrees... i can safely assume that those 10 people do not understand the term devils advocate....

fredrikpedersen4144d ago

I had to laugh when I saw those. It's obvious you were joking.

Sketchy_Galore4146d ago

Media Molecule are the reason I'm getting a Vita on Christmas day. The trailer for Tearaway blew me away. Vita's version of Littlebigplanet is the first game I'm picking up (which I know they didn't make but it's at least driving on the road they built) and now this DLC comes along as an awesome bonus. I just wish more studios would try to equal their imaginative and brave ways of integrating and exploiting the possibilities of new hardware.

ElectricKaibutsu4146d ago

Tearaway is going to be amazing.

strigoi8144146d ago

Wow this just make LBP more awesome

THC CELL4146d ago

Yep and this is the reason I did not run out n buy a Wii u

Older PlayStation games that we'd love to see on the PlayStation 5

Okami has HD version already. I want those Sly games though since PS3 and vita had it.

Flawlessmic726d ago

Yea sly would be cool, i never got into those so would be a good opportunity for me to do so.

An update on the LittleBigPlanet server and online services

Classic LittleBigPlanet servers are to be shut down permanently following hacks.
Sony’s drastic move comes after months of downtime for the older games.

darthv72955d ago

It was fun while it lasted. And some of the user created stuff was a blast to play with.

Snookies12955d ago

Whaaa-? That's crazy. Didn't expect it to be permanently shut down...

Teflon02955d ago

It's still up on PS4, they just shut down the PS3 end because hackers on PS3 can't be stopped and go on the game making announcements that can't be avoided without having to go back to all the old game codes and updating to remove the feature etc. It's one of those sad and garbage things where hackers ruined a good thing. I'm mostly sad about the Vita, I'm not sure if I have my music stages saved to my Vita, meaning they're gone forever if I didn't save them back to it. They were good too :(

Profchaos955d ago (Edited 955d ago )

Have to say I expected them to be permanently shut down problem would be in the underlying server architecture and possibly something like a depricated authentication protocol which has to be replaced that the PS3, PSP and vita can't support which is why they can't be securely restored on those consoles but the PS4 does support it.so lbp3 was restored on that.

Given the attackers were able to breach the server there was obviously a fear of lateral movement once inside their servers so I can't blame them for this and it makes sense despite the huge blow to the community millions of hours spent building that community.

Despite this blow I believe the millions of creations are going to be available via lbp3 and it's capability of backwards compatibility with user generated content so that's something to be thankful for still not a huge consolation to the many players who only own a older console but unfortunately that's the world we live in these games are old the older they get the more insecure the servers get which the company that make them.host them on and the more likely they need to be shut down.

MadLad955d ago (Edited 955d ago )

Feel bad for the people who dedicated so much time into this game.

Battlestar23955d ago

Nice edit to your troll comment.

MadLad955d ago (Edited 955d ago )

I reread the article, and changed it, to be as honest on the topic as possible.
Let's be real, it was an easy reaction to have considering their actions of late.

CaptainHenry916955d ago (Edited 955d ago )

He's been on a roll and it's comical 😁

RedDevils954d ago

This guy love stealth troll on playstation article as I see the pattern, but he doesn't want to admit that he's a MS fanboy.

Christopher955d ago

I am also sorry people enjoyed the online aspects of the game?

The man who earned a job by playing LittleBigPlanet
By GamesRadar Staff March 03, 2015
***“We've hired four people from the LBP community" reveals Alex Evans, co-founder of UK studio Media Molecule and creator of LittleBigPlanet. Including one lucky soul who dodged death to get a job on LBP2. Enter John Beech, or 'johnee' to his PSN friends. Two years ago John was a builder with absolutely no qualifications to speak of. But now? He's a full time designer at Media Molecule working on LittleBigPlanet 2, one of the most anticipated titles on PlayStation 3. This is his story.***

of course there is.. He was stealth trolling stating all LBP contributors wasted their time making levels for LBP... I pointed out that some of the contributors for LBP + Dreams have actually got JOBs because of the CREATIVE console. Just like Gran Turismo fans

Understandable they had to do this better to be safe then sorry. I just wish those right wing racists that hacked the servers and started posting homophobic slurs would get want they deserve a good few decades in prison.

Profchaos955d ago (Edited 955d ago )

That's the thing I guess if it wasn't them it would just be someone else and we would still be in this position regardless of their intent.

darthv72955d ago

What are you going on about?
