Fffudge I want to watch it, but I don't wanna spoil it for myself! I think I'll pass - Story Mode is the only thing I haven't spoiled already! Thanks for posting the video for us anyways, though. 2010-12-07 03:56:00

The intro is so much better...I can remember when people wouldn't play LBP1 because the beginning was too boring! Hopefully this will change that.

What do you mean by that? What were you expecting?

If by "everyone's" you mean yours, and by "hopes" you mean baseless/ sourceless rumor, then yes, I would say you are correct.

Alo, I'm with Zim in this, I want to see it, but not at the same time, I think I'lll wait until release since being in the BETA does reveal quite a lot, and this is one of the few things that I've yet to see.

(Yet again, most of story mode IS still a mystery as well...)

I caved in...I couldn't resist! Man, Avalon is officially my favorite. Unless they change Clive back, that is...
Did anyone else notice the text Mm used? It even emitted and stuff, and it wasn't stickers or a hologram. I mean, sure Mm is known to use things we're unable to in their intro levels, but do you think that's a text tool?

The Intro level in LBP(1) Was really awesome with the style, it really sold the theme of littlebigplanet. This intro sequence for LBP2 has done the same, But a lot better. Watching this has put all my last worries about LBP2 to rest. 2010-12-07 14:55:00

For anyone wary of watching the video, just go ahead and click PLAY. The title of the thread is a bit misleading for one... the video is almost fifteen minutes long, but we only see a few minutes of the actual story mode. Most of the video just shows the games basics... going through how to emote your sackboy, dress him up, etc. (stuff that any LBP fan already knows). As stated, the video doesn't give anything away important or that we don't already know.

Interesting to see, but nothing mind-blowing imho. Still, it's enough to excite you! I'm stoked for one of the new costume pieces as it's just what I've been waiting for!

Thanks to the OP for sharing this.

Yay that was very coolo~
the game looks like its gonna be awesome Pie <3
not much new here but it was great to watch non the less

Man MM has gotten better at making levels.... i hope they do far more DLC Level packs this time around....
once a year was pretty weak (>_0) the mid packs don't count~ im hoping they do something more along the lines of
1 every 3 months. :3 *mew

PS: Haha as much as i don't want to spoil my self i just have to watch whatever comes out =P
but i always spoil my self, its fun somehow. xD

Wow. Fifteen minutes and only thru the intro/first level. What A shame I was hoping to at least see three levels if not four or five. What a hoax.2010-12-07 18:38:00

Oh, yeah that's exactly what I meant. Thanks dude!

Cause everyone knows hopes are just based on rumors and can't be created by the person who has them, right?

Silly me. But seriously, were you just trying to be a jerk there...?

Hum, MM staff members..?? I think it's rather professional actors/comedians...!

...and it would be so cool if they improve the quality of the voice recording,
so that it sound like in that intro... even if it will not improve the acting...

I looked it up on IMDB (Internet Movie DataBase) and the only actor listed was Stephen Fry. Maybe next time I start up the BETA I'll look in the credits.

Hum yeah, but Stephen Fry is famous...
When I say professionnal "actors", I don't mean "famous" but just the kind of anonymous people who voices cartoons, documentaries, TV ads and those kind of things, as their regular job

So I don't know if they would be credited for that, but yes it would be interesting to know if it's the case

Even people who aren't famous at all are included on the IMDB website - I'm not sure why they aren't. That's why I was guessing it could be Mm staff. I mean, if they've got people with good voices on their team, why waste money hiring a famous person, rite?

They hired professional actors to voice the story characters.

And the lettering was probably done with stickered hologram.

It looked way too clean to be hologram - No corners were visible at all.

It was probably hologram set to 100% brightness. The reason corners would not have been visible is because hologram's brightness is directly affected by stickers, so the edges would contour exactly to the sticker's.2010-12-07 20:16:00

They used programming magic like the introduction text in LBP1. Oohoooo, that's probably the only time they cheat to create a level.

Pretty amazing stuff right there.
I love the new Left Bank 2 8-bit remix for the intro. Brings back a little nostalgia for the first game and the 8-bit era in general lol.

I mean, if they've got people with good voices on their team, why waste money hiring a famous person, rite? Good voices doesn't = good performances. Voice acting is a very difficult thing to do well, and a great voice is only a part of the whole equation.

It's true... I'm on IMDB and I'm certainly not famous. The way IMDB works, is that it's either up to the production company to list their credits... or up to the individual - but not required by either party. For example, I'm only on there because two of the many productions I've worked on decided to list the credits for their show. Just to illustrate how "lax" and messed up IMDB actually is, I'm listed by one company for work I did back in the mid 80's. I'm also listed by another company for more recent work (who got my job title/description wrong), but the two shows come up seperately under the same name.. as though these shows just happened to have two different people working on them with the exact same name (which is not the case... both credits are mine). So basically, if you search my name - both shows come up but my name is not "cross-associated" (so to speak) as being the same person.

Incidentally, I've never been contacted by iMDB to be asked permission to be listed or to get my proper information. As a "credited" professional, I have the option (in my own interest) to "pay" IMDB money to access and manage my own information.. adding all credits to anything I've worked on, changing or correcting false information, adding photo's of myself, etc. This is likely the case with Steven and Paul... that they've added the game info to their own credits themselves (or more likely by their agents).

Being that the LBP franchise is not a film and doesn't belong on IMDB anyways, it's likely that Mm have never thought to put up the other voice actors' credits there... or possibly haven't gotten around to it yet. It's likely that each voice actor will need to add their own credits if Mm doesn't do it for them.

Help! Im being crushed by the wall of text above me!

Anyway, it seems that MM changed LBP2's plot a little, and also the Negativitron. Its kind of annoying to see Larry Davinci in those 3-D glasses all the time, though. And It bugs me that hes like, 100x bigger than Sackboy.

Anyone noticed how a middle section of the video has been edited out? At the start of the video they refer to playing about half an hour of the story mode, but it turned out to only be fifteen minutes. Also after they finish the Rookie Test level there has been a section of film taken out and replaced by a white fade, and then miraculously the whole of Da Vinci's hideout has been completed.

I think there might be more video, if anyone can find it ...

O yeah, and I gotta admit, after watchint the vid again (and again) the text looks nothing like hologram.

Sorry, had I known you. would be here reading along I would have kept it shorter, dumbed it down, and used less big wordy-words. Of course, I guess you could have just ignored it and moved along without the smart-*** remarks instead.

Changed the plot a little? Could you please post a copy of your . script so we can see for ourselves what changes were made and when?

I love Avalon that much more now. "HOW DO YOU STOP THE UNSTOPPABLE?!?" Beautiful. The plot is really better this time around. And I love how MM's heads are tossed around like a salad with ranch.

Also, college photo:

I've noticed that when Da Vinchi says "I should do this all myself; I really should." He looks away furtively, and there is a purple light behind him, in addition to ominous undertones in the music. Is this foreshadowing that he is planning something potentially bad that is hitherto unknown?

In addition, he doesn't know his own name until he looks a big "D"; maybe he's lying?

Or maybe he made the Negativatron. Actually, if you're looking for it (and being extraordinarily suspicious of every concievable thing, like me), there's a lot of evil things thrown in. The comment about "experiments", and he corrects himself when talking about how lucky Sackboy was to have escaped.

But honestly, I think the name thing was just a play on him being really old.
