LittleBigPlanet 2
LittleBigPlanet 2
LittleBigPlanet 2, développé par Media Molecule et publié par Sony Computer Entertainment, est sorti le 18 janvier 2011 sur PlayStation 3. Ce jeu d'aventure, de réflexion et de plateforme se présente comme la suite directe du premier opus et le troisième titre de la série, commercialisé non plus comme un simple jeu de plateforme mais comme une « plateforme pour jeux » centrée sur le contenu généré par les utilisateurs. Le disque inclut également Sackboy's Prehistoric Moves, une démo de ModNation Racers et un tutoriel PlayStation Network, tandis que la compatibilité totale avec les créations du premier volet est assurée. Dans son scénario, Sackboy affronte le Negativitron, un aspirateur interdimensionnel menaçant Craftworld, aux côtés de l'Alliance dirigée par Larry Da Vinci. Le jeu affiche une note moyenne agrégée de 88,10 et une durée de sept heures pour l'histoire principale, s'étendant à environ quarante heures et demie pour une expérience complète. La presse a salué ses qualités, le magazine games(TM) évoquant son évolution attendue tandis que Joystiq louait un jeu de plateforme amélioré de façon exponentielle, et certains joueurs sur Metacritic y voyaient un chef-d'œuvre source de souvenirs marquants.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« We can't wait to see what LittleBigPlanet 2 has evolved into in a month or three, when we can truly measure the impact that these tools will have had on an already ultra-creative community. We predict that it's going to be like setting off an atomic bomb. »
« Yes, it's an incredible platformer, categorically and exponentially improved over its predecessor, but there's a much larger picture that might take you a few evenings of madcap, freeform architecture to discover. LittleBigPlanet 2 isn't just a great platformer, it's a veritable celebration of creativity. »
« Whether you're looking for a solo diversion or online camaraderie, personal expression, or community inclusion, there's just no good reason whatsoever not to dive in and explore the many wild worlds of LittleBigPlanet 2. »
« Little Big Planet 2 is the perfect platform for future game designers. Media Molecule have done a great job with this incredible editor, creating a superior gaming tool for dummies. If you're planning to buy this game looking for a platform game, skip it and try something else. LBP2 is not a simple videogame, but the perfect editing tool for videogames lovers. »
« Adding so much as to be a little intimidating at first, LBP2 brings a slew of impressive new creator features, while still offering plenty of cool new things for those who just want to play. The basic, flawed platforming of the original is still there, but compared to the possibilities LBP2 opens up, it's insignificant. »
« LittleBigPlanet 2 is a special game that entertains effectively, and does nothing less. Playing together with friends, and enjoying the unrestrained power of man's creativity is a sight to behold. »
« No matter what camp you belong in, LittleBigPlanet 2 is phenomenal. It's the first big game of 2011, and it may very well turn out to be one of the best experiences of the whole year. »
« There's no way you can seriously sit down and play LittleBigPlanet 2 and not have a smile on your face the entire time. »

« LittleBigPlanet, how I miss thee. This is pure joy captured in game form by the wonderful Media Molecule. Plus, it gives your noggin some exercise if you want to explore the power of their logic system in crafting mode. »
« LittleBigPlanet 2: I grew up playing LBG 2 at my sisters house on her PlayStation 3. Great fond memories of this masterpiece. 9/10. »
« Formó una gran parte de mi infancia, me abrió los ojos a lo que es la imaginación y los niveles de la comunidad me enseñaron que la creatividad no tiene límite alguno. »
« This is the best little big planet game and there is no doubt man my opinion theybrought in alot of new fun stuff »
« Pretty much the perfect sequel. As stated in the respective earlier review, the first game was a buggy disaster which, at it's core, really didn't let you express your creativity all that much anyway. It had serviceable but boring pre-made levels where you played as a character that wasn't fun to control at all, and a game engine that made it impossible to make levels with any sort of life at all. While the first game was unfortunately more popular than this one, LittleBigPlanet 2 fixes all of its problems (such as the assets constantly breaking or falling apart in the level creator mode) while also offering far more variety to the gameplay itself. The only real problem with the game is that it still has the DNA of LBP 1 at its core, and as such, the base game still has you moving around as a sackboy that is feeble and still not fun to control at all, even though they've given him new powerups like a grappling hook and the ability to control vehicles. To be frank, this game is at it's best when it's not trying to be a LittleBigPlanet game, which is why it drives me up the walls that so many of the online community levels are just generic platforming levels instead of any of the countless other out-of-the-box ideas that can be achieved with the new creation tools. That being said, it's story mode still offers the best levels and characters of the franchise (certainly a hell of a lot better than that weird burger lady we got in the third game). While this is the best of the franchise, I must say that I think the creation tools are just too complicated for most kids to use, which is why this series never took off the way Minecraft or other games did. »
« My Review – LittleBigPlanet 2 – 10/10 I gave LittleBigPlanet 2 a 10 out of 10 because it takes everything that made the first game great and makes it even better. The platforming is fun, the creativity is limitless, and the tools for creating levels and games are incredible. The community content is endless, the art style is charming, and the soundtrack is memorable. It’s not just a game — it’s a platform for creativity, imagination, and fun. This is why LittleBigPlanet 2 is a 10/10. »
« Like the last game but even better since there are new features and higher quality graphics »
« Une expérience globalement satisfaisante. J’ai passé un bon moment du début à la fin. »
