No creation aspects, ripoff the style and objects. I'll even be surprised if this game can be released without getting into legal trouble. They basically copied and pasted exact scenery and objects. I do like the water and rotating 90 degrees, but man....

Very funny.

Les copy very thing sony have .MS

Some of them can stand on par with xbla games, but there's a lot of really poor games.

Hopefully the new rating system will allow for a better way to find the gems among the sea of junk.

that's kind of embarrsing an indie developer made a game that looks and probably plays better then LBP a game that happen to be made by proffesional developers LOL

wow pootang you really need glasses. What a ripoff hope mm sues em for everything they have.

I waanntt new games not LBP

But I doubt it has level editing/creating. Especially as a XBLA download title. That makes it LBP "inspiration" a bit sad. That MS recycling LBP associated music.

thats an indie game??? who made it ? damn these guys keep getting more talented as they come... this looks really good

Edit: ok more info

http://xboxindies.com/2009/...

apparantly you play as a little kid who's shrunk in size and cant remember why or what happened to him... interesting

PS3 Droids will have a field day with this one. The game wasn't made by MS. Its just some indie game probably coming to Live arcade. I'm surprised to see more fanboys in the gamer zone than here.

I have 2 Xbox and 1 ps3 , I not fansh@@@ guy , I just don't like this games like LBP SH@@@ ok ,Looking very like LBP for mim

Wow, I am just speechless, it has been said many times that this is an indie game but people here do not read I guess, you folks always make yourselves look so foolish when you don't read, maybe you should put that 5th grade education to use and read before writing.

Even going to the site they put up the disclaimer for N4G people, isn't that a bit embarrassing?

I hate MS more and more by the minute...

LOL first using the LBP music in an AD and now this.

Well, I guess anything to a get a sale.

i lulzed at the skate bit lol

Well, MS can't ever do anything original. LBP was offered to them first and they refused thus when SONY makes it a success they want part of it. Same thing with Natal and even the 360. I bet the bots will love this.

What game is original these days ? Nearly every games takes inspiration from other games.

I guess MW2 is completely unoriginal as well if you put it that way. LBP opened up a new genre , be happy games are taking inspiration from it.

Indie or not it`s a ripoff and it`s on the 360

uh-oh!!!! M$ copycat!!!!!!!!! someone should sued on games!!!
LBP> fake LBP ripoff!!!!

Original, something original please.

it look very horrible!!!!!
that Bill Gates's house!!!????

Nice!

Did anyone see the other indie games that are in the dream build play competition?

"like platformer!?" THIS THING HAS LBP WRITTEN ALL OVER IT!!!

"Inspired by" LBP...maybe...but for an indie group of guys to put that together, it is impressive. Don't sh1t on good devs simply b/c their game is on the 360. Just look what happened with Braid and Castle Crashers :)

although Im sure it was inspired somewhat by LBP, it is its own unique game, the visuals are very different (and a lot better tbh) and it has 3D dimensions.

It would be like putting down ANY fps and calling it a poor mans COD or some crap.

Infact this looks fantastic, i really hope it comes to Xbox Live

Not a fan of the style of the game but it might be fun to play. CLEARLY inspired by Little Big Planet, but with the potential absence of user creation and the clear absence of the lovable Little Big Planet atmosphere, this game just cannot compare.

Went back on to lbp last night. Damn that game was still fun. More excellent levels created.

Now ms....well ms devotees needed lbp-lookalike. It will not be as good as lbp thou.

We've got Quantom coming soon : )

Can't believe only 3 people made this, game looks and plays great.

My god, all you fanboys ruin gaming, this game in no way looks bad for..

A USER MADE GAME WITH JUST 3 PEOPLE

You f*cking retards, if anything it reminds me of the PS1 game Micro maniacs which had small characters running around a huge house like area.

It is not a LBP rip off, it has NOTHING like LBP, it would be like saying any game with a big city is a GTA rip off.

is opening a lot of doors for people, I think they did a good job with this, as a Xbox-360 owner I have to say to PS3 fans 'calm down' it's clearly not on the same level as LBP, anyone can see that, but it's a good effort.

Haha... Enjoy your cheap ripoffs, no wonder you bots are so desperate.

Why are Microsoft and the Xbox 360 userbase so obsessed with Little Big Planet? Yes, it is an amazing game, but sheesh, this clone has no shame at all.

LBP has a little SACK boy an this game has a little BLACK boy, lol! looks good, not my type of game tho!

It even has the skateboard. F'ing pathetic.

Spot the fanboys. Anyone bashing MS here clearly didn't read the article.
People wanted to see some quality XNA games, well here you go. This is what you can do with XNA with a bit of talent.

but i have to agree with action bastard,three indie programmers trying to make something cool can't be hated on.even if it is on 360 and copying another's work.

it's the same with full teams.if not for games like final fight,streets of rage wouldn't have been made.if not for contra,gunstar heroes wouldn't have been made.if not for mario,there would be no sonic.if not for DMC,there would be no god of war or the new ninja gaiden games.get the idea?

this is far from the level of LBP,but i actually liked the look and change of perspective.but they got a long way to go to make a complete game.if they are lucky,someone will notice and help them finish their creation.it shows promise.it's flattery for MM.

no hating this way on this.

apocalypse.................

that it is a knock off of lbp lbp was great they must have like the game so much that they were inspired by it to make that game

Pay. Regret. Delete.

I admire this guy's candor...

Pretty good for a do-it-yourself thing.

Props.

LBP rip off. Lol. Even the little cutesy music. More power to them. If you can't play create share in this game then it definitely can't hold LBP's jock strap. Lol

the bots says
its not made by Microsoft
yet in the web site it says
"Magnetic Mind is a game created with Microsoft’ XNA Game Studio."

and you guys talking about not reading the source ?

Just like Kodu (I remember the xbots hyping this up to be a LBP killer lmao).

from the article
" What is it?

Magnetic Mind is a game created with Microsofts’ XNA Game Studio.
"

so how is MS has nothing to do with it?

and stealing. Stealing from LBP is acceptable and commendable. Imitiation being the sincerest form of flattery...I doubt Media Molecule minds.

Still the number of LBP influences (music, swinging mechanic, first level called Garden, etc.) is kind of hokey enough to say 'rip-off', but what would you expect from budding developers.

Looks cool though, and in some ways in reminds me of Toy Home in PSN as well.

I hate 360, but the part in the game where he was hopping up the knives was pretty cool

This is lawls.

what happened to kodu?

YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME!?

Is there so many retarded fanboy gamers out there they had to go out there way to Rip-Off LittleBigPlanet!?!?!?

Seriously! This. Is. Ridicules.....

If 'anyone' pays money for this, your an idiot. Go buy your self a PS3 and LBP, then be happy.

Jesus! BE ORIGINAL PEOPLE! BE ORIGINAL!

What a big effing RIPOFF! aaaaaaaaahahahahaha

If this was only made by A 3-Man team that's pretty damn impressive cant deny that too bad, they couldn't share there love on the ps3.

Hi,

I am the main developer of Magnetic Mind, and I feel, I have to make some comments on that game:

First: this game is not from Microsoft and we are not related to them! And Magnetic Mind is not thought to be a rip-off of LBP and it is not thought to be a game, that should show, that a LBP is possible on a XBox.

We are 3 hobbyists, that just wanted to make a funny game for the XBox (made possible with the Indie-Game-Channel on XBox Live). We made this besides our normal work in the evenings. So it is just a hobby and has no commercial background. The competition Dream Build Play from Microsoft is a great way, to compete with other Indie-Game-Developers.

To the game: Magnetic Mind is a little bit inspired by Little Big Planet, that's right. The idea grew as follows: We wanted to make a 3D - sidescrolling Jump and Run game with great graphics. Someday we saw a video of LBP and were very impressed by its style and visuals. So we used some of its elements in our game: The depth of field for example and the camera positioning. The idea, to make a guy, that finds itself in a large world, was born before we meet LBP.

But the gameplay and story itself differs very much from LBP. We tried to make an environment, that is very close to reallity as you can see in the kitchen-Level.

Conclusion: Magnetic Mind does not want to be a clone of LBP it is only inspired by it. And of course LBP is much more than Magnetic Mind, please keep in mind, that we are 3 guys, that are working on the game in the evenings and that we do this as a hobby.

We never had thought, that Magnetic Mind would start such a flame-war!

Many greetings

the developers of Magnetic Mind

Everyone all way does this. They jump in front of e veryone and start comparing their game to a more popular mgame and won't shut up about it. Just like the people who made Shadow Complex who won't stop comparing it to Metriod. This way they get everyone all hyped up saying it's Metriod for the Xbox 360. Just like Dante's Inferno where everyone compare it to God of War. It is obviously a rip off of God of War but it's the best way to get you game out there. Everyone will jump and say "It God of War for the Xbox 360" and run to buy it while the uninspired lazy developers just sit back and ride the God of War rip off wave to big money. And then when they are accussed of ripping off God of War they will simply say "No were not"

No matter what anyone, anywhere says...this game is a blatant ripoff of Little Big Planet's style, appeal, and design.
