The original LittleBigPlanet did something amazing - it combined the charm of a 1990's platformer with the brilliant technology of the current generation of consoles. It was a breath of fresh air when it arrived, completely different from the dark and serious shooters that currently plague consoles. It was a side scrolling platformer where you play as 'sackboy', and run through the levels avoiding danger and completing simple puzzles. It was physics based. You can drag an item made of sponge for example, or roll a ball into a big gap to make a bridge, but your little character can't muster up the strength to pull metal or any heavy objects, resulting in a humorous facial  Read the complete review

There have been a few rumours about this game being the same as the first one, just with different material. Those rumours should be thrown out of the window! It should be a question of what hasn't changed not was has changed. There is so much content in this game, I don't know where to start! But like most people, i'll start at the beginning. When you first start the game, you hear Steven Fry's amazing voice explaining what Little Big Planet is, with breathtaking animations to go with it. If you had the first Little Big Planet game, don't be upset about losing all those precious materials, costumes and stickers because it gives the option to import your last ...  Read the complete review

Usually, I hate the people who claim to be 'thoroughly disappointed' with a game sequel because it has 'lost its original charm' when all that's happened is they've clearly improved the design, as game sequels are meant to do. However, unfortunately I have to swallow my pride and admit Little Big Planet 2 has lost its charm, but mainly only in terms of story mode. The first LBP seemed like it really did transport you into a day dream, with lots of bright colours and bubbles and surreal enemies it seemed a lot more hand-crafted. The new story mode has a lot more shooting, whizzing balls of energy, about a third of the levels involve riding other creations and essentially .  Read the complete review

After owning Little Big Planet and hearing that the sequel was soon on it's way I was very excited. However, because I can't afford I lot, I waited until this dropped from £40 down to £19.99 (@ Game - 21/04/2011) and could not wait to get it home to start playing it. This version of Little Big Planet has many similarities to the first game, yet has many positive differences as well. The Similarities: + Narration is still done by the famous Briton, Stephen Fry. Good decision by Mm because his voice really fits in with the relaxed nature of game. + You can still dress up your Sackboy (now called Sackthing if you listen to the narration in ...  Read the complete review

This is the highly anticipated sequel to the 1st little big planet and in my opinion it lives upto expectations. The story levels are based around you trying to destroy the negativitron, an evil creation taking over the world. It consists of 30 main story levels plus a whole host off mini levels. I personally preferred the carefree story off the original but that doesn't stop this one being great. In this adventure they have added several things, you can now use a grappling hook (which can be hard to learn the full use off), sackbots (they help you in levels and some you can ride) level joiner doors (so that levels can be as long as you want) plus a few other ...  Read the complete review
