This game was basically the foundation of my childhood memories. I might've been five or six when I first played it. I remember making a bunch of dogshit levels. Eventually I got the second game that I sunk a bunch of hours into like the first and then the third one in maybe like 2015 or so. Even though the third game was buggy as hell around that time, apart from the save file corruptions it was pretty fun.

It's genuinely sad to me what has happened with the series. A few years ago I was playing the revival severs but they've been infiltrated with troons and creepy paedophiles. There's a pride month Blahaj bomb survival level that's filled to the brim with troon flags and other gross sexually deviant shit that shouldn't be in a game for children. I guess in a sense it might've been for the better that LBP's official servers didn't survive into this era.

Even as I'm in my 20s now, I will always love this series. Also you really should've linked Chris' "autism tutorial" level series here. Genuinely funny shit.

Edit: I found the level. It's as horrifying as you'd think.

Anyway, thank you for making this thread. It makes me happy to see fellow LBP enjoyers on the Farms. :)

The Vita game is pretty awesome too. It's definitely the closest you can get to LBP2 on a portable thing even if the story mode's different.

I never really liked the new Sackboy game. I played it on the PS4 when it first came out and it felt really generic in comparison to the original games. Didn't help it was buggy as shit around the time to the point where the game crashed when I tried changing my costume.

It was okay for a platformer, but it’s definitely not LittleBigPlanet. It was disappointing that they couldn’t include at least a basic level creator.

There is Restitched, an upcoming and very promising spiritual successor by Trixel Creative for PC. It actually started as a fan-game called LittleBigPlanet: Restitched, but Sony quickly killed it for obvious reasons. Trixel started off as a modding group who made Return to Carnivalia, a really good LBP3 adventure that’s meant to be a continuation of The Journey Home.

I hope Restitched does alright. I think with the likely chance that we won't ever get an actual LBP sequel or anything of that nature it'll be good for what we can get.
 
I remember playing on the creative mode with my buddies and one of their friends would automatically place a shitty mic recording of young wild and free by wiz khalifa as background noise and it would just loop over and over. Peak 2011.

Boys, I’m home.
But in all seriousness this is a great series, the world needs more creative-based games, glad Re-stitched is trying to fill the void with blackjack and hookers
Sony made some great games like this, medievil and parappa that they maybe release one little thing or mention it every decade just to pretend that they care, if they were smart they could have snatched up some new fans during the demand for Nintendo to bring back miis, that would have been a perfect move. Do collab dlc packs again, I remember using the nightmare before Christmas pack, that was my favorite. wonder if my old PS3 still works.
 
Damn now this takes me back. Used to play this shit all the time on my PS3 before it was sold. I was obsessed with the shitty natural disaster levels where you had to survive shit like tsunamis or falling stuff. The 2010s were truly one hell of a decade.
 
I love LBP, especially the second one, easily one of the best PS3 games. I was shit at making levels so I just had fun with the story mode and playing online with randos.
 
I loved the game as a kid, had the first and second one. Would spend my whole day looking for awesome levels, I remember one day I stumbled upon a level that was a mystery short movie, it was amazing the things you could do with that game.
The soundtrack was really good. Introduced me to Nightwish.

I didn't get the third one though, nor Sackboy Adventures, so I don't have an opinion on those, but the series were really good for kids to get creative. I tried to create some levels but were absolute dogshit.
 
Fuck I completely forgot about LittleJewPlanet. I would only play at a friend's/counsin's house cus I was an Xboxfag
 
I grabbed a ps3 very late into the generation. I was able to snag LBP 1 and 2 for nearly nothing and the 2nd ended up being the most played game on the system for me.

I remember people wanted licensed music in the game but you couldn't upload files to the service but you could record bad quality versions with a microphone (I think using the Playstation Eye) and then have them available in your levels. It was also really cool that you could copy other people's creations to use later for your own levels. I have a very specific memory of a dude having Moves Like Jagger by Maroon 5 in his level. Good times.

Thinking back, that generation was really the last great generation. DLC was a big thing but it hadn't completely been exploited and you could enjoy a game by just spending 60 dollars. I'm kind of glad they never made a LBP 4. You know it would be extremely barebones with most of the game paywalled, even features that came stock in the 1st game.

Edit: Some dude has a massive playlist of him playing LBP levels. He's over 4k videos deep!

Edit2: What exactly was so bad about LBP 3? I never did get around to playing it but I've only heard bad things about it.

Are the custom levels really gone forever? No backup or fanproject to archive/rebuild them or anything like that?
It would be crazy for all this to just go poof, I still remember how big LBP and especially LBP2 were back in the day. Also, how Chris was obsessed with it, lmao

LittleBigArchive exists and I'm sure other archives are out there

How accessible is this to your average player? If I recommend some normalfag who got a normal used PS3, how easy would it be for them to get the custom levels? Or do you need a jailbroken PS3?
I'm an Xbox kid, so I'm clueless how this works on the Playstation.

I recall there being a level import and export feature for the game so you could put level backups onto flash drives or the PS3's storage so that's what I believe is going on.
