From looking at the updates in the Kotaku article it appears Sony are the moderators, not MM (which is understandable, as MM have more important things to do... like make games... than check levels)
I've got a feeling there's two parts to the moderation process. This is pure speculation...
One is an active moderation, where Sony keep an eye open for obvious copyright infringing content.
Two, is an automatic removal of levels that are reported using the ...
I'm really glad this game got the sales it deserves, I think Peter Molyneux has finally been (almost) vindicated. However...
Fable 2 is a bit of an enigma for me. I really really enjoyed playing it at the time, but I couldn't shake the feeling of slight disappointment as I progressed.
For example, after fighting a particularly large enemy I was excited at the prospect of bigger and badder enemies... But they never came.

Regardless of price, Sony would be selling a lot more if they bothered to advertise more...
I went to the cinema last night to watch Quantum of Solace. During the adverts there were a few video game ads...
LBP for PS3 - which I thought was a confusing mess of an ad, and did nothing to promote the game
Mirror's Edge for PS3 - Which again seemed confusing (mostly involving in-game footage of the characters feet!

As much as a I find CliffyB's rantings distasteful I can't see how he's ruining the Gears franchise at all.
I doubt anyone is going to NOT buy Gears 2 (or Gears 3) just because of something he says. From the reviews it appears that Gears 2 is pretty much living up to the hype - so the game speaks for itself. Any noise Cliff makes is not going to effect things one way or another.
I don't agree on the 'over emphasis on graphics' point.
Playing a PS3/360 game with top notch graphics really helps immerse the player in the game and story more.
A game like Fallout 3 is so much more immersive because of the quality of the graphics. Much of LBP's appeal is because of the charming graphics.
I'm no graphics whore (I still play plenty of PS2, SNES and MAME games) but playing something like Zelda on the Wii through an HDTV is not a great e...
That's a truly awful list... #1 Better games? What!?
There's two reasons why the Wii is beating 360 and PS3...
Price, and it has a 'hook'.
Even though the 360 is now cheaper, the Wii has always been a budget console, and it's games are still cheaper than the 360's.
The hook is the Wiimote and other peripherals such as Wii Fit, plus Nintendo marketing the hell out of the thing as a console for everyone.
I've been a staunch and l...
Garrrrr! Agreed PirateThom!!
MS publish some seriously great games (I'm currently enjoying Fable 2 a lot), but Sony are in a different league at times.
Sometimes it's not what you do, but how you do it.
Even if Boku ends up being a better tool for user generated content, it's unlikely to have the charm and style that elevates LBP from being a Great game to a Classic game.
Why is it that everything has to 'pwn' something when it comes to MS?

I've had extensive hands on time with iPhone, Storm and Android.
With out a shadow of a doubt, any touch phone equipped with Android blows the other two away. The iPhone is closest to Android, but the Storm is just not a great device in comparison.
If you like the Blackberry interface/OS, and know no better, then I'm sure you would love it. But not me!
Good luck getting all the studios that back Blu-Ray to agree to launching their films on RDM!
Lest we forget... HD-DVD was cheaper to produce and had a more complete feature set on launch... and still lost.
It still puzzles me how Super Mario Galaxy got such high scores. I'd say it was a bit better than Mario Sunshine, but waaaaay behind Mario 64.
I think whoever decided to use the pic above on this story added a few thicker scanlines!! Compare it to the pic in the article and you'll see what I mean!
The interlacing isn't a huge issue.
Great post lumbo.
There's a world of difference between being hacked and being stupid enough to let someone guess/steal login details.
Sounds draconian, but whatever.
If people act like idiots on forums they are probably the same squealing pre-pubescent racist homophobic idiots encountered in online games! Kills two birds with one stone.
Isn't this Fast Money tip displayed in one of the tips that appear during the loading screen? Sure I've seen it mentioned...
Well you have your opinion and I have mine - and in my opinion the game has far too many issues to be called a complete piece of software. Do I love the game? Yes, it's one of the best I've played this year. But can I recommend it to people? No, it needs a massive patch.
You only have to look at the above average number of posts in the Lionhead forums to see the problems are far ranging.
So far I have luckily only encountered a few annoying glitches/bugs rath...
I can't believe Edge would give this game 9/10 considering the number of bugs and glitches in this game.
Co-Op is practically broken.
Single player has so many game stopping bugs it's untrue, and even the minor glitches can be downright annoying.
Fundamentally the game is absolutely awesome - but my experience with it has been severely tainted by the poor state of the game. In good faith I could not recommend this game to anyone in it's current unpatche...
I don't agree with everything you said in that post Lanoire, but goddam if that's wasn't a rallying cry to all PS3 owners! Perhaps Sony should take it on as the company anthem!!! :)
The only people who care about this are 360 and PS3 fanboys with inferiority complexes.
I own both 360 and PS3, and I'll rent FC2 on PS3 - why? Because it's a trade off, playing a slightly inferior version on the PS3 vs playing it on the annoyingly noisy 360 hardware.
My 360 only gets used for exclusives now (currently loving Fable 2) and even then I get annoyed at having the jet engine 360 wailing away next to me - it's distracting, ridiculous and I don't know ...
Totally agree Shadow Flare.
I'm sick of the front page being full of crap.
When I first started playing the game online I went in to a level ( I thin it was Fastest Sackboy Ever) because it sounded interesting. A few seconds later I had gained a couple of Trophies.
I felt kinda cheated as I hadn't earned those Trophies on my own merit, and instead had been through a poorly designed level intended just to earn people Trophies.
For me that's ...
