LittleBigPlanet Hands-On
We got the chance to play the beta of the game, and we want to share you our experience of the game.
The game is essentially easy and pick up to play. At first you’ll need to play through levels in order to start making your own content. I’ll go into content making later in this post. You will first have to play through the credits to get the feel of the controls.
In each level you play you can find stickers scattered throughout the level. Some are hidden, and you can collect the green orbs to gather points. The more points you score the higher up you go on the Leaderboards, but then if you have 2 or more players than it provides a race to see who has the most points.
The online component for the beta was a bit laggy when it was full. So, it’s a nice thing that they delayed the online part for the game. Other than that, you can play levels, user created levels, and even make levels with your online friends. It’s a fun experience for offline and online friends. Personally I liked swinging my arm around and smacking people to their death.
User Created Content, since the beta begun many people were already cracking on making levels. Lots of them are pretty wicked you can say. It’s pretty easy to make your own level. The level editor provides you with videos, and tutorials. Playing these tutorials helps you unlock more goodies to help you in your creations. I have messed around with it here and there, but I won’t begin making levels until the full game releases. Some of you may ask, is it hard to use the level editor? The answer for that is a no, it’s easy to pick and and create something within 10 minutes.
Well there you have it, the hands-on experience. But due the limited timing of the beta, we aren’t able to do a contest for a beta code giveaway. We have one spare code to provide, to whoever is lucky enough to be able to snag it. I’m not sure if the code is region locked, if it is, then we apologize. To get the beta code just shoot an e-mail over at aerfox@talkplaystation.com. So happy spamming people.
Update: Giveaway over, somebody had already claimed the code.
Just noticed I had another one from the PlayStation Underground. It doesn’t say it’s linked to my PSN ID, so hopefully it works. Again send me an e-mail at aerfox@talkplaystation.com. Please Put LittleBigPlanet Beta as the title please.
Update: Second Code was taken. Thanks for all that tried to receive a code. I might be able to scrounge up a few more codes. If so, stay tuned to this article.
