Online Create & Improved Netcode For LBP

This patch is live now, but for lazy skeptics like myself? We need a video to stir up some level of excitement and that’s what we have here. A video tour of the latest LBP patch.

I think I speak for most of us when I say that these fixes should have been in the product on day one. Hell, I think the game would have been better served if it was delayed until this year with the mass market price of the PlayStation 3 Slim.

But, hey, that could just be me.

The look didn’t change. It’s still a gorgeous looking Wii game, but now it’s in English! I hear there’s a possibility of online play and new characters for the North American release, but nothing concrete yet.

In the meantime, enjoy these:

Tatsunoko vs Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars is coming exclusively to the Nintendo Wii in Winter 2009/2010.

Here’s a piece of downloadable content that nobody expected. Capcom will be releasing a “Versus” multiplayer mode post game launch. I don’t see myself dedicating 10 hours into this, but it looks like a decent addition.

PlayStation Trophy Web Support Tomorrow

Have you ever wanted to check your Trophies on the web? No? Well, starting tomorrow you can via PlayStation.com. For the curious, you can take a look at the following video.

Neat isn’t? Well okay it isn’t anything too special. There doesn’t seem to be a way to compare Trophies online or any way to link it to a “profile card” like with Xbox Achievements. Oh well, that’s Sony for you; taking baby steps.
Now, let’s hope it doesn’t take its precious time to sync and load in the real world.

Quake Live is essentially a revised version of Quake III built for the web browser. The idea behind this free to play first person shooter is to provide a quick to pick up and play game which gamers could access via a web browser. I signed up for the beta a few months ago and was recently accepted. While it sounds great on paper, there are some caveats worth noting.

Some LBP Stats

Looks like Sony and Media Molecule are going to update the community on a regular schedule now with their “SACK IT TO ME” posts. The first installment contained two interesting pieces of info. The first of which is stats from LittleBigPlanet itself:

  • # of user generated (UG) levels = 177,657
  • # of comments = 1,093,491
  • # of times Story levels have been played online = 36,661,881
  • # of times UG levels have been played online = 22,463,892
  • # of levels played online = 59,125,403

That’s a whole lot of levels being played online. And the number of user generated levels isn’t something to scoff at either.

Next, they’ve said that they’re working on a better searching solution. No further details were revealed, but at least they’ve acknowledged the request.
