LBP2: tidbits and eastereggs

Archive: 17 posts


okay, so after playing lbp2 for 13 hours straight(spring break, HECK YA! XD ) i figured out a few things. heres a list of things to know:

-the dart board that has avalon on it in Dr. Higganbothams padded cell(i think in casa del Higganbotham)

-in the cosmo's backround, look at the highest scores on the aracdes back there, you see a name: psa(something that starts with a P, ends with a P, and has I-M in the middle XD)

-in the 1st cutscene davinci says "i really should do this on my own, i should" & shows his negative part, victoria in "a tempermental baketress" says "what did i do wrong, what didn't i do right?" and shows her negative part, but in no other levels do the other creators show thier negative part.

-in (i think) da vici's first level, where the sticker switch is, just look at the whole pick! it's kid davinci on one knee cooing over kid victoria, but kid victoria's like: whatevs.(lol)

-avalon WAS ORIGINALLY a villian http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hyrpwrXui4
oh, and i'd like to talk about this for a sec, while drawing some fan art, i spelled out avalon's name:
A-V-A-L-O-N C-E-N-T-R-I-F-U-G-E ... Avalon Centrifuge, A-vallon Centri-fuge, A villian Centry fuge.
it's funny because all the lbp2 creators where based off of Centries or time periods. (clive--the great deppresion, ex.) and the moral of lbp2 is "team work" but the creators don't get along too well... so Avaon Centrifuge, he's A villian that Fuges Centries to stop evil! lol, i guess i might have cracked your code, Mm!

-oh andddddddd speaking of clive-- i think his theme is the great deppression(thus, he's depressed) and if you haven't noticed clives backround,it's a studio(studio 8 to be exact, O.o clive must have A REALLY big factory then.) in the great deppression, lots of films where made(i thinkkkk my memory of history is failing me... gah now i feel like davinci! XD), so that explains why clives a "little" dramatic XD having his factory distoyed is also a symbol, in the great deppresion, the usa was recovering from World war 2, workers then started strikes (i think <.<&apos so that's why it's all "for FREEDOM" kinda thing. Now printing calanders & making rockets? well around when the great deppression ended, the space race started... so ya. *explained stamp on clives face* so there you have it...
P.S: oh,and i think clive was independent, so he thought of himself, got his ides from himself, and that's why his factory prints calanders
P.s.s: share your idea's and your thoughts about the story characters!

All the themes were originally concepts started from this kind of stuff (images taken when LBP2 was just being announced and discovered):
http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1123/4594225843_328dfd5ddd_b.jpg
-The main theme of LBP1 and LBP in whole, a craft world stitched and glued together.

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3373/4594226053_9f284a0d26_b.jpg
-Davinci's theme, based off of the Renaissance implemented with modern/futuristic technology.

http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1431/4594841180_59cc410876_b.jpg
-Victoria's theme, cake and the steampunk artsyle.

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3311/4594226501_6c60659843_b.jpg
-Clive, communist inspired propaganda and futurism.

-Avalonia, high-tech stuff and cute fluffy bunnies.


-Eve's Asylum is basically the only organic theme.

-Not the Cosmos, rather a plethora of games that were probably the retro 2D kind.

About the cosmos pic:
If you look at the screen, it has LBP2 materials and decorations in it, as well as the Cosmos background. Does this mean you originally played whilst looking at an arcade machine, with your sackperson in the middle?

It'd be bloomin' hard to beat the Negativitron if it did.
Speaking of which, I wonder what the original boss battle was like? Or any boss battle, for that matter.
All I know is that Copernicus had the Red Eye Decoration in the old versions, and Kling Klong looked like a bird, with a magic eye-normal, not evil. Hmmm. Give your thoughts.

Actually I think the name Avalon Centrifuge isn't as much of a puzzle as that, it seems that its actually Mm's idea of the most ego-inflated name possible. Avalon was a mythical location in Arthurian legend lends connotations of mythical / heavenly / godly grandeur. Centrifugal motion is that about a point, such as that in a centrifuge, i.e. the world revolves around Avalon Centrifuge.

Avalon is ego made manifest, in a disco jumpsuit with a strange penchant for fluffy creatures...

There was footage in the announcement trailer. You rode some kind of fuzzy fairy, shot lights at the Nega, and he shot you with the pixel strings in Flight of the Bumblebees.

Actually, it's a century, not a sentry. They are veeeeerry different things. I wouldn't read too much into it. That's what English teachers are supposed to do. He's just got an over-inflated, arrogant name, and as he was going to be the villain, he could be 'Evilon.' Originally, he was going to be called Henry, and lived in Larry's basement, but when they decided he was an egoist, his name became triumphant and his kingdom was sent to the sky.

Well, Clive's theme was 'Neon propaganda,' which I suppose is related to post-war themes such as victory and freedom. Buuuut I think that saying that Clive is based on the great depression might be going a bit far, because, y'know, there's no real proof.

"Set the Controls for the Heart of the Negitivitron! (Part 1)"
Go on the arcade machine that's being repaired by the sackbot and you can enter the code there.

I noticed that in the first movie of Eve's Asylum that the whale the robot duck bumps into is crying. It looks like Mm is up to date with 'Sad Whale is Sad'. xD2011-04-27 12:40:00

In the level 'Patients are a Virtue', many of the LBP1 characters make appearances(Frida, The King and Queen, the dog, Little Xiu, etc)

Also the reason for the dartboard is because of the original evilon story line where Higgenbottom hated him.
