Dissenting Opinion: LittleBigPlanetNo, your grandma's closet isn't on fire -- that's the smell of Sackboy getting Fried in Scott Jones' review of LittleBigPlanet. Russ Fischer traced the smoke to its source, and he disagrees. Read on.

This was great, Russ. I think you both presented your points well, but I feel a little closer to you when it comes down to. Once the Retail Deluge ends and you make your level, I'll play it.

Russ: I haven't played much of Little Big Planet, but I think you're missing the point Scott was trying to make about having some type of plot motivation.
Mario never had anything more than a half-assed plot in his platformers, but we still had motivation. Save the princess. It's simple and overdone to hell, but it's something.
In a game with as much style as LBP, it just feels weird that there's nothing there behind the gameplay. It just feel a little empty.

Lack of plot? How about making your own level with a plot in it? or even better, how about making part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4 and so on of your level and have a plot continue over all those parts. Like a big adventure for the sackboy or space exploration or whatever you like. If you want a plot in LBP then make one. Or play the levels from other people that have made a good plot. This game gives you all the tools you need to make what you want. Maybe its a lack of imagination and not plot

Heavenfall sounds a little like an open source zeolot. "Bugs? You have the source...fix it yourself!"

I think BioShock taught us all that having all the tools you need to make the world that you want only leads to psychosis and/or disembowelment.

 But LBP gives you the things you need to make a darn good level. If you can. The main focus of the game was never the single player mode, was it? I feel the game delivers on what was promised and lets me be creative and create whatever i can. Maybe thats not for everyone, but for me it was tons of fun making that first level and getting everything to work as planned (well almost everything).
