Little Bitty Pretty One
With LittleBigPlanet, Media Molecule gave off a small revolution in the world of video games, giving anyone who was armed with a little 'patience an opportunity to create a home-made video games . Options a bit 'limited online interface tricky and controls were not so well chosen in a title otherwise formidable. Far from a revolution or an evolution, LittleBigPlanet 2 expands the original concept by remedying of these defects to become a development platform video game itself. The improvements are many, but it's almost a duty to report that concern only the creative part. The heart of the game is unmatched, and with it the physical too "volatile" and gummy, which makes it difficult to control the character. This is a rather serious problem, because despite being a game dall'indubbio potential for the creative part, the play is still subdued. So, those who had loved the first episode will not find sufficient grounds in LittleBigPlanet to change his mind, despite the new story mode levels and outside the platform genre.
The creative, instead, will have the best there is in circulation in order to achieve their dreams. The potential of the platform LittleBigPlanet 2 are evident as usual in single mode, consisting of 30 levels and six rooms that offer a taste of the versatility of the new instruments. The ability to program the AI \u200b\u200bSackbot allows us to study solutions of varied gameplay - enemies can be quite complex behaviors - As well as new genres that you can look, like shoot'em up games or driving. You can also indulge with cut scenes to build real stories with the possibility of doubling the characters and even create music with many instruments and a practical sequencer.
generally have to do with the tools of creation is easier and more intuitive than ever before, want the menu to better organized, you want to introduce some shortcuts - like the ability to manage groups objects - that speed the whole process of design. For those who are beginners, we point out the essential tutorial organized by Media Molecule, a bit 'too long, but certainly comprehensive. In any case, the basic ingredient to achieve a result worthy of being sent to the community is a good idea. Unfortunately, between the user-created content and downloadable for free depopulate levels with gameplay meaningless or nonexistent, fortunately, the new appraisal system should at least keep out opprobrium, but with thousands of uploads every week is still difficult to extricate themselves and find something really valid.
LittleBigPlanet 2 introduces a number of alchemical items available to Sackboy. Grapple with it feels a bit 'Bionic Commando, with the helmet Creatinator you can shoot the most diverse objects and the Grabinator you can catch and throw what you want. For the creative side instead Controllinator stands out, thanks to which we can assign actions to specific keys on the pad. Improvements and expansions that make LittleBigPlanet 2 really attractive, even if the creators will notice demanding the absence of a tool to modify the physical objects, or create from scratch items and characters to give the game a more personal look. As it stands, all the contents of the users are sharing the unmistakable style of Media Molecule from which escape is impossible. Ultimately LittleBigPlanet 2 is one of those titles polarizing, which is either love or hate, dall'indubbio value for creators in the grass but negligible for all others.

Pros: Simple editor, new features, possibility to explore other genres, the creation of artificial intelligence; tutorial very helpful, co-op 4 player
Replay Value: better. If you create is your passion, it becomes almost eternal
Cons: physical unconvincing, you can not change the physics of the objects, controls still incomplete
In Summary: LittleBigPlanet 2 lives of his creative component and is definitely a title recommended for designers grass. The others do not miss it.
