My copy of Little Big Planet arrived today. I already downloaded all the free PSN store content. I played it a little bit before I left for work. Kind of interesting. Anything I need to do in the game? Anything I need to know about it?

I did notice a few spots where there was stuff was high up in the air or behind other things and it seemed impossible to get. Do you get special abilities to help you reach these places?

Some things require replay after you get some certain items in order to collect everything, or require more than 1 person to get it all.

Was there a blank cardboard cut-out? Later you get stickers to put on these cut-outs, which then often causes the hanging items to fall into reach.

If they are stickers that do this, they will be above your normal stickers in a category called "trigger" or something like that.

there were a few of those point bubbles or whatever but i don't think there was anything above them. In one section there was a humpty dumpty guy on a ledge and something on a pedestal beside him. i figured i had to make the humpty fall off and climb up on him but couldn't see how to do it. now that i know this info, i'll have to check it out again.

Played a level online today with 3 other people. Holy crap that SUCKED! It was laggier than hell, I kept losing track of my character and died several times, and the screen just jerks all over the place if someone is lagging behind or gets ahead. I was kind of worried at 1st because the other guys were getting all the items but then i realized afterwards that I got them as well, so that is one cool thing about it.

When playing online levels, it's best to just play "on your own", or whatever it calls it (there's an option for it).

one thing you need to know ...

you really don't need to start a completely new thread when you buy old games that have been discussed to death and have official threads.

in case you did not know, there is a way to search the console forums here. there are multiple threads already created with the exact title you have for your thread.

You know what? purbeast has a point here. SCREW YOU and your family pontifex! This is completely uncalled for and I am personally offended by your actions here. Creating a thread on a video game forum on the internet!

TO THE STREETS EVERYONE!!! LETS GOOOOO!!! AAAARRRRRRRRRG!

Is the game the same on the PSP? Worth it to buy it? Just got me a PSP and would like to try it - unless it sucks for the PSP of course :p

Have you ever tried Skyroads? :D I wasted two keyboards on this game (you basically just move left/right and jump with space). Most frustrating game ever. But you just kept playing...

And I'll get LBP once it's out on the PSP :) Thought it already was...
