GameXtract writes "Media Molecule is a company many would have not known three years ago. Now with Sackboy claiming to be Playstation's new icon the company is becoming a favorite for all gamers. Even though the title has yet to be released, LittleBigPlanet is turning into a gaming craze, and is the hot topic everyone is talking about these days. Here at GameXtract, Sackboy and his content take up a good fraction of our blog just from writing about every new innovative trailer the guys over at Media Molecule release. Many may be wondering why is this stuffed animated Sackboy so god dam popular? It's not because he's simply on the Playstation 3 or the fact that he's considered cute, and adorable. We pinned Sacboy to a cardboard box, and opened up this stuffed object to find the meaning of LittleBigPlanet, and how Media Molecule managed to create this worldwide love for such a new character like Sackboy."
Times are changing, and these games would have never been made in today's climate.
Every single time someone uses this phrase whether it's music, movies, books, comics, video games, etc it's always the same claim.
The ubiquitous "they" won't allow it to be made. And every decade these claims are made the claimant completely ignores all the "offensive" material that is published when the claim is made.
In ten years, you can write a new article about how you can't make games like Helldivers 2, Resident Evil VIII, Mortal Kombat I, Dragon's Dogma 2, Alan Wake 2 etc etc etc any more.
Dead Island: "The early PC version of the zombie game swapped the playable character Purna’s Gender Wars skill with a prototype name, which shouldn’t be mentioned directly. The skill name made fun of both Purna as a character and feminists."
"Feminist Whore" lmao
ill add one more to the list.
drakengard 1.
its ridiculous tho, especially since they'd still be able to find their place in alot of places in the world. except america of course ha. and maybe Australia.
ppl are so sensitive these days. ha. but it is what it is.
They're not offensive.
And we need another Fat Princess. Fantastic little game!
Some people just have no sense of humour if this sort of thing offends them. They need to lighten up and stop taking themselves so seriously.
Alex DS. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Is the PlayStation 3 retro? This is a surprisingly hard question to answer as the system definitely has the age to be considered retro, having launched in 2006, over 15 years ago now. But with it being home to so many massive games, many of which still hold up today and in fact were released for the PlayStation 4 when that console was released, make the PS3 a retro console that doesn’t feel retro."
Typically, the term retro is given to items which are at least 20 years old (but not yet 40 years old).
Quick google search
No the PS3 is not yet a retro console. But if you're gonna put 1 game from a series in this list, then LBP2 should be there instead of the original, Motorstorm PR is also an overall better game than the 1st game and to put Tools of Destruction over A Crack in Time is a blasphemy when ACiT is the best game in the series.
Classic LittleBigPlanet servers are to be shut down permanently following hacks.
Sony’s drastic move comes after months of downtime for the older games.
It was fun while it lasted. And some of the user created stuff was a blast to play with.
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.
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.
(Don't get any ideas; I would light him on fire if their was such a feature)
He obviously doesn't know what the hell this games all about.
Its new and it could be for all ages.
HipHopGamer may agree.
In an ocean of games using essentially the same formula (shoot, shoot, shoot), an island appears on the horizon that looks to be a land of infinite gold & discovery.
Is it just a mirage? Time will tell.
Bottom line: it's a breath of fresh air, sometimes that's all it takes for a game to be successful. No risk, no reward.
LBP has become in a sense a next gen Mario Bros, everytime i see a trailer i get this feeling.. not everyone may feel the same but the whole adventure and jumping around and using your head to figure out how to get across is simply great.
Put adventure with great physics.. great graphics... the cuteness and most important being able to create your own levels is simply great..
Because it is for EVERYONE.
If you want to fool around you can.
If you want to beat every single level and get every single point you can (try).
If you want to show off your skills at engineering and architecture you can.
If you want to show off your piece of art, you can.
If you want to bum around with buddies you can.
