There simply isn't anything else like LBP on any system, anywhere. It's a beautifully elegant and powerful creative tool that puts unlimited potential in the palm of your hand. [Nov 2008, p.92]
We're just happy to see a flagship game for a modern system that's about running from left to right and jumping over things. New ideas are great, great old ideas are better, and LittleBigPlanet has both: it's the future and the past of videogames, rolled into one.
Little Big Planet is revolutionary thanks to its flexible, fun and powerful editor. Creating a quality level takes time but the feeling of achievement is overwhelming. A must for everyone who loves creativity or likes to explore what the creativity of a passionate community can produce.

LittleBigPlanet es un plataformero sencillo y simpático que tenía buenas intenciones, pero que intentó demasiado fuerte convertirse en la “mascota” de Sony. Su estética adorable y Sackboy están claramente diseñados para ser icónicos, pero esa búsqueda constante de encanto se siente forzada más veces de las que funciona. En lo jugable, el plataformeo cumple sin destacar: es accesible y funcional, pero rara vez emocionante. El gran gancho —la creación de niveles y el contenido generado por usuarios— es interesante en papel, aunque no todos los jugadores quieren ser diseñadores, y el juego base se resiente cuando depende tanto de eso para brillar. Al final, LittleBigPlanet es agradable y creativo, pero también irregular y algo olvidable. Tiene personalidad, sí, pero no la suficiente fuerza como para justificar el empujón corporativo de convertirlo en un ícono al nivel que Sony claramente esperaba.

LittleBigPlanet is effectively “The Next Big Thing” in the videogame’s world, a game where the imagination, the feelings, the cooperation, friendship, beauty and genius are hand in hand.

LittleBigPlanet is a beautiful, happy, extremely eye-pleasing game that will put a smile on anyone's face who plays or merely watches it. Like Sackboy himself, it's impossible to not find the game both attractive and aesthetically pleasing.

I grew up as a PC gamer, but this was the game that made me pick up a console for the first time. Absolutely amazingly creative and fun at the time, and such a fantastic co-op game as well. This was the type of game that could bring an entire family of non-gamers to play and have fun, and it will forever have a special place in my heart for that reason.

This is a gaming achievement, not only for its sharp gameplay and beautiful visuals, but for its vast create-a-level mode as well.

LBP delivers in just about every way promised. It brings some solid platforming gameplay combined with some seriously impressive creation and community tools. If you own a PS3, you should get this game.

This is a planet that you'll want to visit time and again, and that will be different on each return.

Little Big Planet is one of the years most stimulating games to be released.

Having a continuous supply of new levels helps LittleBigPlanet remain fresh – there’s always something new to fool around with, even though there are plenty of half-assed levels out there.

Genuinely an amazing from the begginning to the end (of the story mode) The create mode of this game allows people to express their creativity in ways that no other game before could ever offer. If I could, I'd give this a 10000/10

Frustrating, but a really fun platformer. Extremely wholesome and fun. This took me a few days to beat but it didn't matter, even when I was losing my mind trying to beat a level I was still having a good time. The game is just so wholesome and fun that it's hard to get mad at.

I absolutely loved the levels but found it dull after finishing them. The fact that multiplayer is needed to get 100% completion on some levels is absurd. I play games usually alone and offline so this made it hard to enjoy the game to it's fullest. The map creation is an amazing concept and theres a lot you can do but theres really no use in using it. I get that you can publish them but if you play offline then it's a useless feature. This game was MENT to be able to play offline and online yet once you finish the story mode you're forced into online. Summary: This game is enjoyable if you plan to play it online. If played offline it can get dull fast.

this is the game that made me care about user ratings, one of those games where you feel the clash between user and critic reception -- the clash that even makes the more paranoid among us wonder whether all those critics have been bought out. aaaaaanyway. this is a 2d platformer, which is to say it's a mario wannabe. it was hard enough for sega to try to get its platformers to stand out way back when, but they did manage, and the first sonic games are good, different and better-looking than the mario games. where sonic differed for being fast and cool, sackboy wants to stand out for being... slow, floaty, imprecise, i guess? and OH MY GOD there's a narrator that narrates the game like a children's book, and i'm gonna try to be fair here and saying without exaggerating that about 40% of the time i spent with this game was hearing his voice talk veeery slowly while i pushed buttons to try to skip his monologues. just awful. i get it -- the game is for kids. but kids in the 80s didn't need santa claus narrating video games in order to have fun, and they still don't.
