As a game, LittleBigPlanet 2 was all about motion and physics. It was a Rube Goldbergian dream diorama, a series of flipping levers, bouncing springs, swinging doorways and tumbling blocks. The game had a heavy thunkiness to it that unfortunately was its undoing in the gameplay department—it was so dependent on its physics engine that the basic platforming never felt quite right, and didn't come close to the kickass bounce of Super Mario 3D Land.
But boy, was this game musical. It was another one that I had a lot of fun reviewing, largely because it was a a game whose aesthetic charms pushed it past its gameplay shortcomings and won me over.

Isaac Clarke of Dead Space fame has appeared in many games, both as a playable character and an Easter Egg. Have you played them all?
From Xfire: "For a company with a three-decade-long history in gaming, Sony has done a crappy job at preserving its legacy. "
All the mgs games, all the ape escapes, silent hill 1-4, croc 1 and 2, legend of dragoon, tekken 3,tenshu, bushido blade, vagrant story, okami, ico, crash bash, gt4.

Folklore. It was such a unique and beautiful game. Great soundtrack. I still have my PS3 copy
Infamous 1 & 2 probably will get remaster for PS5/4 at some point as for the others in that article idk
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.
Feel bad for the people who dedicated so much time into this game.
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.
The music in LBP2 was disappointing compared to LBP1.
I guess its all down to personal preference but personally LBP1s music had me captivated. I couldn't wait to see what lbp2 had in store for me and in the end I was very underwhelmed.
Don't get me wrong i LOVE LBP2 and at one point was an avid creator, The music just sucks. -edit it doesn't suck, its just not great.

Check this out if your a lbp2 fan :D
Deus Ex: Human Revolution had an amazing soundtrack.
Definitely one of the best game sound tracks out there.
Play Shadows Of The Damned, Catherine or Dark Souls then call me in the morning...I really think Akira Toriyama, Shoji Meguro and Motoi Sakuraba brought their S game this year in OSTs. A very close second is Ace Combat: Assault Horizon.....
Listen to this track G-Drive from SotD and this is just the opening menu!
LBP2 has one of the greatest soundtracks I've ever heard.
