They obviously have no place in the LBP community. I assume everyone here at LBPC will agree with these sentiments. Most of the creators who publish what you call "mature" levels are just trying to cash in on the shock-value of it all. The "good grief" system is in place for the exact purpose of weeding out these type of level. What are you asking? Do we like these levels? Generally, no. They are tasteless and usually don't show any creative talent. There are rare exceptions to this generality, but unfortunately this game is catered to all ages, so mature content will always be frowned upon. Have we seen any? Sure. We've all stumbled across levels that are inappropriate, but we pay them no mind. If deemed too offensive, we will good-grief them but we aren't going to post them up for others to see. Immaturity in a game that promotes creative thinking and self expression is unfortunate, but it is all part of life. That's my $0.02! Edit: I just realized the irony of the statement that "Most of these mature levels are made by those who are immature..."

Anything relating to babies like Poms' Miracle of Life? No, not really, that's an awesome level. I only play good levels

Stupid or bad levels are not to mix with "mature". We make such a bad utilisation of this word. A "mature game" shouldn't mean it's too wierd or traumatising for kids. Just that it's a complex and thoughtfull game or treating of matters that are not kids business. There should be no problem with a level treating about sexuality. We all have one, It can be educational, etc. Explicit levels depicting wierd adult fetishes? Sure wouldn't be welcome. But those should be treated exactly like gore levels. How is violence better than anything you see in "mature games" ?? I would totally do an erotic/sex themed level in LBP if this society was thinking straight instead of having wierd definitions and priorities. I would like my children to be in contact with sexuality and being incitated towards such things than renting a "10+ Movie" where you will see a guy getting its head exploded on screen by a gun. .

Yeah, I've seen some of these levels. I just Good Grief report them and move on. They are usually made by Immature people. But the 'Miracle of Life' level was awesome. There wasn't anything 'graphic' in it either.

I was a little surprised at Miracle of Life but there is no need to be offended by it's content, it's mere biology, so they're just sells. The level is never actually suggestive so it's perfectly acceptable. Anywho, I've come across a few of these "mature" levels. They are part of what the Good Grief system is for. Many immature people who use the internet will find ways to exploit anything so as to shock and offend. This unfortunately will include LBP.

I played a level ages ago. Which was a blank canvas with pink floaty material shaped into male genetalia. Crudely i might add, like you'd see in a science book when no ones doing there work. Well you grab them and it rockets you around for a while. Pretty rubbish.

About 4 months ago, my wife and I played "Life of a Sperm", mainly to see if it was offensive and tasteless, as we had seen some levels on LBP that were and Good Grief'ed them. Well, this level was neither tasteless or offensive, but my feelings are LBP is not the place for levels such as this. Most everyone started by playing the LBP Story Levels, which are very tame, before venturing into Community Levels. I have a 7 year old daughter, and I prefer she play levels that are geared towards children, no offensive/tasteless/gory content. Sadly, that kind of crap is all over LBP, because someone is always looking to push the envelope, and as someone said above, looking for shock value. IMO, if you allow one, you open the door for the more offensive, so I would prefer all of those types of levels to be removed from LBP. Rick

I've seen them, but i've yet to see one which is "mature". Mostly giant phallic symbols with emitters. a level can be "mature" if it wants, but it should be done in a mature manner. (ie: poms' meaning of life) any level thats just sticks "mature content" where it doesnt belong (NO thats not a euphamism >.>) will get griefed by me.

Saw quite a few when the game was new. I good griefed them. Haven`t seen any for months though so I had guessed they were becoming a thing of the past for the most part.

A person left a comment on one of my levels for me to try theirs.... I went in, and it was a really strange level about elves and marijuana. At first I thought, "Does this REALLY belong in LBP? It's HIGHLY drug related." But, then I totally enjoyed it and left it alone. I suppose I'm all for good griefing a level that is inappropriate... unless I enjoy it.

I think most of us have seen "mature" themed levels on LBP before. Usually, if you find them too offensive, then I guess that's what the Good grief option is for. I don't mind if the level isn't THAT offensive or if it's a good level to play. Like I really injoyed Pom's "Miracle of Life" level. It had a slightly mature theme, but it was a really good, detailed and fun level.

I would totally do an erotic/sex themed level in LBP Wait, what?

Wait, what? if this society was thinking straight instead of having weird definitions and priorities. thats a big if. to elaborate, he may be implying that the way our society handles sex transforms it from a natural part of our life cycle into a filthy act performed by hedons or a sport that we should all be vying to take part in for the fun of it. that, in fact, "protecting" our children from knowledge of this subject leads them instead to act ignorantly and incorrectly when the time comes that they are able to participate, resulting in a society that is populated by hedons, unfit parents, and a general lack of responsibility, perpetuating the cycle. and possibly further, that if we truly were enlightened, the subjects of our discourse would be irrelevant because all of us would be completely objective if not unified in our views. if thats not what he is implying.... well then its just my opinion.

Well I have heard of some mature levels on the cool pages but I've never really seen one myself.....if this concerns poms level....I don't think there is anything offensive about it.....I mean it was a very well built level.....If poms level was a "mature" level it would be the most hearted, best detailed, and most time consuming over all other "mature" levels

Adam, I understand you're worried about these ?mature? levels. I am worried too. I am a father of two daughters, and the older one (4) plays LBP very often. I've seen my daughter playing very violent levels, which I won?t recall here, that I just had to tell her to give up playing. I've never seen any level related about sex, and I think I?ll never see it. This would be automatically moderated. Each country is a different culture, but where I live, sex is not that mystery to kids anymore. I?ll tell you one thing: I created ?The Miracle of Life?, thinking of my daughter to play it. When my second daughter was born, I had to answer a lot of ?mature? questions, and a level like mine, I?d say it could help a father to answer this kind of questions. This has as much importance as you want to give it, but for a kid who has no idea of human conception, my level won?t reveal to him much a thing, but if he does, and he wants to relate my level with it, I?d say it could be a funny way for him to imagine what he?s already learned. One last thing, I?d prefer my daughter to play an explicit sex level, than a ?Resident Evil? level, as she has done. Regards.

Not only do I think this level should stay in LBP, I think schools should make it a "mandatory play" for child sex-ed classes!

I haven't come across any "mature" levels yet and i got the game a little after release date

Just a word of note, the game is indeed rated everybody, and that pretty much means anyone from 1 to 100 years can play it! (or over 100.... if they own a PS3) If the "mature" levels were made for the "mature" crowd then i really have no opposition against it. The level was made with the intention for a certain audiance and not just made as a joke. Same goes for all the Nazi, 9/11, terriots levels. If they were made to get a message accross to the player then I think it's acceptable, but if they were made just to make fun of the event, then they deserbe to be destroied.

They should have you set your age at the beginning or use your psn birth date and have the creators set how old you would have to be to see it... they wouldn't necessarily have sex and exploding heads, but may just have mature topics... nothing bad. That should not be GG'd. (Good greifed) For example... Poms' level is fine! Nothing bad, nothing they don't teach kids in school. If that was moderated, I would have a bone to pick with MM!
