October 5th, Canadians Play LBP2 At The SONY Centre!

Archive: 33 posts


Yes, unbelievably, it's that time of year again and we are rapidly approaching what many PlayStation fans look forward to all year: the PlayStation Holiday Preview Event party!
This year?s event will take place on October 5 from 5pm to 9pm at the brand-new Sony Centre in downtown Toronto (formerly the old Hummingbird Centre). We?ll be the second event to open up the centre, and everyone is welcome.
What titles are you looking forward to playing? Killzone 3? Gran Turismo 5? SOCOM 4? What about LittleBigPlanet 2? Have a few titles in mind that aren?t first party? That works too, because we are giving you, our fans, exclusive access to all the hottest titles before they hit the retail shelves this holiday season.
Partying at our own ?centre? is great, but it wouldn?t be a party without some third party developers. Activision, Disney, Konami, EA, Namco, Ubisoft, Warner and many more will be on board to show you what games they?ve got up their sleeves.
While we can?t guarantee a Kevin Butler appearance like we had at E3, we will provide you with hands-on time with all your favourite titles, live DJs spinning, and delicious food. Because everyone knows that the way to a gamer?s heart is through the games they play and the food they eat!
October may not be cold enough for toques and mittens, but what you can bring are your friends, family members, and frenemies if you like. So if you?re not too busy on a Tuesday evening, come down to the Sony Centre and find out what we?re up to this year.
RSVP to the PlayStation Holiday Preview Event, and please visit our Facebook page for more information.

I know right?

If you're talking about my "Canadians Play LBP2 At..." it's because I didn't think I would have enough room to be more specific.

What's wrong with having an army of Canadian ninjas? I feed them every night, the good ones even get to go on walks!

With the game now delayed, you Canadians are lucky. Have fun everyone going, for everyone here at LBPC

Well, at least that's on the same continent I live on this time. But, there's no way I'm going... There will never be anything like this near where I live, I bet. Oh well. Those of you going, be sure to spend every waking minute documenting it have fun! 2010-09-26 15:51:00

OK, so there wasn't much new stuff at the LittleBigPlanet 2 Canadian Expo -- No giveaways. Only free sunglasses for everybody, some t-shirts (no LBP2 ones, just Modnation which wasn't even on there... boo!!) and not much else.

The competition on the expo was fierce. I had to practically fight to get a spot. I had 3 sessions of 5-7 minutes over a period of four hours. I spent the rest watching other people and playing different games that nobody was playing (TRON, Vanquish).


STUFF

? Point bubble colors don't seem to change according to player color on this version of the game, at least. I changed my color to red and dark red/black, and the point bubbles in "Tower of Whoop" always stayed blue.
? Few glitches. I was actually surprised -- there being a beta and all. It's probably because I didn't have enough time to play through it.
? All pretty comprehensible -- however, I didn't figure out how to connect a DCS to a Sackbot. Stoopid me.
? Not much else. I didn't get too much time on the monitors... beta plz? D:

??????????????????????????????????????????????

*sigh* Well that's pretty much all the info I can bother to give you guys. LittleBigPlanet 2 is awesome -- and you should all buy it when it comes out.

Plus there was a giant sackboy.

That's all from me! Seeya in the beta!

Oh dang, I hope you can still attach a DSC to a SackBot (I've seen it done in the Beta though), that was a level idea of mine. I hope it was just because you didn't have long enough, but thanks anyway 2010-10-07 18:14:00

You can, but you cannot currently pit a physical DCS on a sackbot like was shown at E3.

Yep. Apparently attaching a DCS to a sackbot crashed the game like crazy, so they removed it for the time being.

Also, @Xero Space I agree. Those dang Canadians! Riding their polars and making their 'igloos'. And what's up with ending sentences with 'Eh'?!?

...

Eh.

So you can't put a DCS on a sackbot?! That sucks! I hope Media Molecule fix that because they delayed the game why not use some of that time to fix that 2010-10-08 00:34:00

Yes, I agree. Currently I'm fairly sure you can only put it on the circuit-board, where sackboy can't enter it. Dang.2010-10-08 00:57:00
