Title says it all.

Which one should I get?

LBP has me on the rails. I loved the beta, but can see it getting boring quite soon.

I played the Tom Clancy's: End War demo on my mates 360 and loved it. Especially the voice-command - it makes you feel like you're really interacting with your troops.

Far Cry 2 looks amazing, especially the Map Editor.

Fallout 3 will have me entertained for ages, but I miss the online features.

I'm Stuck.

Thanks in advance.

Honestly, LBP. I've played it, completed it, and would reccomend it to everyone, despite it's few flaws.

Second choice is fallout 3. You can't say no to post apocolypic.

Far cry 2, or fallout. Both have a much longer lifespan then LBP, though you know the full results when your asking this question on a littlebigplanet forum.

Edit: Lifespan meaning story mode.

Yep, I know what you mean. The abuse you must have suffered after admitting that...

No opinion on End War?

I guess I'll be going with Far Cry.

My opinion on endwar is that its just an experimental game and will have, being the first of its sort (that I know of) Many flaws, though i've never played the game. It looks a little too much like command and conquer to me.

Ask yourself this; If it didn't come with voice commands, would the game still be fun enough to buy? Because the novelty of shouting at tanks to go left (for example) will probably wear off eventualy.

To be honest, I played it without voice command aswell, and it was still just as good. Obviously, screaming around is more fun, but it holds just as much promise for people without mics.

Granted, it is a little like CC, but hey, it's a tactical game.

I'll have to wait and see what the PS3 demo is like when it finally reaches PSN, but until then, I think my vote's with Far Cry. I just watched some videos and it looks great.

As much as I love LBP, I voted Fallout 3. Maybe you can enjoy it instead of me, since I don't have the money to buy two games (for now ;_; )

Seriously though, awesome game is awesome! =D

My mind is made up.

I had the chance to play the demo again, and if it is anything to go by, the full game will be awesome.

Drum RollEND WAR!

It's compulsively addicting, and this is just the demo, I would recommend anyone looking for new games to take a look at this.

Day one buy for me, and in second place is Far Cry, then LBP. I can't believe this myself. :eek:

To be honest, it's what you think and you will have different tastes to those around you.
Personally, I don't like tactical games much. I prefer, "Run in, shoot and kill EVERYTHING!" games.

Not including LBP of course.

Also, advice on those who are feeling slightly unsure about LBP's lifespan:

Play with someone else with co-op, like friends or family. Makes it completely de-boringised (if you find it boring).

Of course, I think LBP is great anyway.


LBP FTW!


ALSO:

I completely lol'd at the poll results. You have your mind set on EndWar, and it's got NO votes.

i'm pretty lucky (i dont mean to brag ). I was just going to get lbp but i got a job recently (a chicken shop that pays me next to nothing) and it has given me just enough money to get fallout 3 as well. Also my friend is getting Far Cry 2 so I'm going to be borrowing his games and he is going to be borrowing mine 2008-10-22 23:26:00

Hmmm. Doesn't really make sense to be asking a LittleBigPlanet fansite, now does it?

Jeeze, there have been so many threads and polls for this same question. Someone should just make ONE thread and poll with all of the newly released and upcoming games, so that if anybody wants to know what we generally think, they could just go to that thread and see all of the newly released and upcoming games in a list from best to worst (furthest from best if you like). Keep the environment clean!

Woah. I just read about the End War demo. Is the demo on the PlayStation Store?2008-10-23 03:57:00

Not yet, just XBL, hopefully it'll be on the EU store today.

Just found this, might peak peoples interest:


So yes, we're going to have free DLC, and then we're going to do DLC that brings new modes, new maps and new content. Massive new content. So this is going to be one of the best supported Clancy games we've launched, post-launch.

Sounds good to me, although I will be getting Far Cry 2 a week or 2 later.

I know, but if you had played the demo you would know what I mean. I just hope the PS3 demo hasn't been abandoned like so many multi-platform games. Maybe we'll see it with todays update.

I'll definitely take these votes into consideration, but it's ironic how the votes are exactly the opposite of the order I was going to get these games in.

I'll probably rent LBP first and then decide, if I like it, I will most likely get that first.

I hadn't actually confirmed in my mind whether End War was worth getting when I made this thread, therefore, I made it.

After playing it it rocketed to the top of my list, even though no one voted for it.

Like I said, I just wanted to know what you thought is good. If I started a poll if I should a)jump off a cliff b) lock myself into a tiger cage c) have a pizza,

I would most likely go with C, even if it had no votes.

Anyway, thanks for your opinions, you can now close the thread.

This is how it falls: 1: End War 2: LBP 3:Far Cry 2

Fallout doesn't look like my kind of game after looking into it.
