New LittleBigPlanet Level
Posted by Blackstaffer in LittleBigPlanet on May 19th, 2008
There has been lots of talk and videos about LittleBigPlanet, and lots of it isn’t new. But I loved seeing this video because it shows a level I hadn’t seen before, and it’s quite cool.

The look and the environments remind me a lot of LocoRoco Cocorecho. What do you guys think?
Thanks to Sporty for the link. Too much PS3 news to fully cover today
Valkyria Chronicles

This is a Japanese strategy RPG developed by Sega exclusively for PS3. Unfortunately, Disgaea 3, which was the other big strategy JRPG for PS3 was pushed back to 2009.
This is out in Japan and headed to the West in November. There are also trailers on the Japanese PSN if you have a Japanese account setup. These videos show more cut scene footage than gameplay but the art style looks very nice.
Game I Want to See on PS3
Posted by Blackstaffer in PS3 software on May 16th, 2008
I was just talking to Tosh this morning about Champions of Norrath, my favourite PS2 game. Which got me thinking that I would really like a game in the same spirit as that one on the PS3. Which got me thinking about what my all-time most wanted made-up game would be on the PS3. So here it is. This is the game I’d most like to see on the PS3, in the form of a recipe (kinda).
1. Start with a game with the same basic mechanics as Champions of Norrath.
2. Update the game with current generation visuals and 5.1 surround sound.
3. Throw in some of the cool stuff from Untold Legends like the combo system.
4. Make sure it has good online and offline multiplayer support.
5. Expand the random dungeon generator so that they’re different every time you play. (This was in Champions, but not its sequel.)
6. Add more spells and variety in spells.
7. Add three dimensionality to the game, allowing you to jump down on enemies.
Okay, okay. I was starting to get a little too specific there. The point is, I’d like to see a good Champions style game on the PS3. Untold Legends was a valiant attempt, but fell quite short.
That’s what I’d like to see. How about you guys?
