LittleBigPlanet 2, easily

tynam5629d ago

I will give mass effect 2 a go, but given the choice i'd go for lbp2, i hope it lives up to the hype

-Alpha5629d ago (Edited 5629d ago )

It will! It already has in my books. It's a sequel in the truest sense of the word

LBP2 has been the choice for me since I pre-ordered the Collector's Edition.

I feel sorry for whoever is buying both. Good luck getting that past your conscious/wife/mother/girlfrie nd. All of which will nag away at you to the death for such thrifty spending :D

blusoops5629d ago (Edited 5629d ago )

All I can say is: only one of these two games will get a discount much faster than the other. And when that happens, I'll have both.

@Alpha

Pshht... that's what private CCs are for... :p

Dragun6195629d ago

Probably gonna get both, I mean they're both GOTY contenders so you can't go wrong with either of them. Especially after the latest OPM gave LBP2 a 10/10.

-Alpha5629d ago (Edited 5629d ago )

What are CC's?

Sounds bad. I'm telling your wife!

captain-obvious5629d ago

why not both
i mean
save some cash
like i did
:)

Anarki5629d ago

LBP2, imho... Played ME before and I'd still prefer LBP over it. Though, I do intend on purchasing both of these epic games day1.

DORMIN5629d ago

but I played ME2 already so its LBP2 Day One for me. Already got the CE preordered.

Looking forward to trying ME2 demo tommorow to see the new engine. XD

norman295629d ago (Edited 5629d ago )

LBP 2 for me then maybe mAss Effect after a few months when its cheaper, need to look after the pennies in 2011 with all the exclusives and the VAT increase, LBP2 is already the top pre ordered game on play.com

RageAgainstTheMShine5629d ago

LBP2, we have been waiting for this for ages!!!!

Its worth the $60.00

I will get ME2 when the price lowers though

Keith Olbermann5629d ago

Buy lbp2 and buy mass effect 2 for pc. My pc isnt anything special but it runs ME2 just fine.

Gawdl3y5629d ago

I finally got in the LBP2 beta last week, and I must say, it is simply amazing. Nothing created compares to it, in my opinion. Definitely choosing LBP2 when it comes out.

HolyOrangeCows5629d ago (Edited 5629d ago )

The creator of this idiotic comparison will surely burn for eternity.

The games are nothing alike, they will suit different tastes.

UCMEandICU5629d ago (Edited 5629d ago )

(those the game was created for) will likely pick LBP2 and or DS2 for January and play ME2 sometime later in the year cause hey, it ain't going nowhere anyway.

I also think many 360 gamers that no longer have a 360 but instead a PS3, or never got any of the DLC for their 360, will support the game more.

Either way WIN WIN WIN for Sony, the PS3 and it's gamers.

Same. I will be picking up both on release day but I will be going halfs with my bro on Mass Effect 2 as its a Single Player game and I can play LBP2 while my Bro plays Mass Effect 2. Can't wait.

Redempteur5629d ago

i'm also on e of the " BOTH " side ..
why settle for one ?

rrw5629d ago

either way PS3 will win

Thatguy-3105629d ago

LBP2 of course !! I mean have u seen the Sony vs. Marvel vs. Capcom !!! EPIC I TELL YOU

specialguest5629d ago

I'm at a stage of my life where I don't have time to create cool and unique games on the LB series. As creative as I am, I would love to, but time is not my friend.

Therefore, ME2 for me.

Mr Tretton5629d ago

You don't actually have to create levels. You can play endless amounts of other's creations online. I had plenty of fun with that with the first game that I never even got around to making a level.

talltony5629d ago

Mass effect 2 can easily be made in lbp2 so my vote lbp2

visualb5629d ago

BOTH!!!!

and Deadspace 2 as well =)

3 games in one month =( won't have any cash for KZ3, Motorstorm Apocalypse or anything else ='(

FACTUAL evidence5629d ago

BOTH!!!! If you haven't played ME2 and interested, you better start saving if you don't have it now. I will get both and only both!

SnakeMustDie5629d ago

I've played Mass Effect 2 already so LBP2 for me. If you are a PS3-only owner, i suggest getting both because they are both quality games.

Dark_Vendetta5629d ago

You Sir, although you have an awesome name/avatar, fail at being a gamer

Neckbear5629d ago (Edited 5629d ago )

Thank you for the compliment about the name/avatar.

But, quite frankly, I've already played Mass Effect 2, and I didn't like the first Little Big Planet- while I also have kind of a gut feeling about the second that tells me "you won't like this game".

...Which is why I'm getting neither, and I can't see how that makes me "fail" at being a gamer.

Pedantic915629d ago

Heck, if anything, you could probably make a semi-Mass Effect game in LBP2.

I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed

Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.

toxic-inferno193d ago

I feel the same way.

I mean, how difficult would it be for them to release SOMETHING of substance? Another short trailer? A couple of proper hints? A short story set during the original trilogy, but focused on fringe characters?

Hopefully they're working so hard on the game that they don't have time. But still, with every passing year and so little to show, the franchise will be slipping further and further from people's minds.

Profchaos193d ago

Yeah agree it's almost a cop out since Dev times are 5 to 10 years just throw out a few seasons instead you get them done in a year

jznrpg193d ago

I still haven’t beat Andromeda. I am waiting for a lull of good games in my backlog

P_Bomb193d ago

So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?

Rebel_Scum193d ago

Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”

Good games but no Phantasy Star?

merlox1088d ago

Why do people forget Phantasy Star? That is one of my favorite RPG series. Another ther good but overlooked series is ,Y's.

anast1088d ago

ES3 set things off, it's a shame they got greedy and decided to cut corners so the executives could get huge pay days.
