    I wish they would let you download the online levels in the background to play later. I find most of the time the servers are too slow to play levels being shared by others. I believe I've played less than 10 levels since launch.

    I wish they would release more official level packs too.

    Hmm...Its a Sony news thread and I don't see any 360 fanboys posting how stupid a re-release of a game thats less than a year old is and how Sony is a money grubbing evil empire.

    Don't mind me. Just trying to make a point.

    @Vecha: Tired of America's Solution to Health Care.: No my point was actually related to the 360 articles posted earlier that were close to 90% PS3 owners complaining about one thing or another related to the 360.

    Their defense was that PS3 threads have 360 fanboys complaining in them too. Which isn't the case at all.

    @Kakuki: Yeah...it seems most PS3 fanboys have more time on their hands and are a lot more bitchy. At least the Kotaku commenters. I invite you to comb the threads. The proof is there. 360 fanboys don't give a shit about Sony news. PS3 fanboys are attracted to Microsoft news like sharks to blood.

    I think its because we're happier, but I'm sure you have different ideas...

    Meh I'd rather have the game go down to at least 39.99.

    It's a decent value though but the only DLC packs that are really interesting is the 2 MGS packs.

    @billysan: It's just a shame you can't put the paintball gun on your sackboy as an accessory, but it's instead tied to the level.

    After getting frustrated too many times in a row I gave up on LBP. It's a shame really, but at the same time I don't miss it at all and rather jump into BF1943 which I'm getting bored with.

    I really like LBP, until i have to play it, upon which i find it kind of samey and not very fun. to watch, beautiful, to admire sublime to battle those druggy sack movements and to get stuck in scenery, frustrating as ****.

    So i love LBP, but I hate it. anyone feel the same?

    @Dreamwriter: They're user-created levels, so one point in time they already were free. It's not easy to find specific levels all the time, though, and it sounds like MM themselves probably helped the creators put some finishing touches on their levels for the retail release.

    The $30 worth of add-on packs is enough to justify the $60 re-release price tag anyways.

    I haven't bought too many console games lately, but $60 for a re-release strikes me as a bit pricey, even with the extra content.

    @EnigmaNemesis: Fallout 3 + 5 DLC packs (at $10 a pop) for $60 isn't so bad, considering it could only be a better deal if you could find Fallout 3 on your platform of choice for less than $10...

    @EnigmaNemesis: I guess I should say the game itself is limited by my imagination. Opinion, of course. But I just haven't played any levels that scream creativity. It's all the same principles recycled into themes. If I see another, "Look it's LittleBigMario!" or something like that I will gouge my eyes out.

    Again, just my opinion. But I tired of the game too quickly, even after the added paint gun. The GOTY edition was just sort of the final nail in the coffin for me.

    Only time will tell if this gets popular or not.

    I think it has potential. If the tracks are really as customizable as they seem, maybe...

    It's like LittleBigPlanet without the insane learning curve. I dropped that game because I was too dumb to learn it.
