LBPVita Info - With Sources!

Archive: 87 posts


I created this thread because I was seeing threads that listed information without sources and without a fully updated OP on all information available. There is nothing wrong with these threads at all, but I think we need an updated thread entirely about the information of the game along with viable sources.

-The game has an intuitive and easy-to-use user interface
http://au.psp.ign.com/articles/118/1188481p1.html

-A more Pick-up-and-play approach to the story levels rather than a long drawn out story
-You can place objects by tapping on the spot you want to place them, or you can paint objects or textures with your finger
-You can also record an animation path by simply drawing a path with your finger
-When painting geometry you can use multi-touch to spin or size the object
-All the touch controls are “additive”, which means you can choose not to use them
-All the designers use the tools players can use
-You can upload and download via Wi-Fi or 3G

-All of the costumes that you might have bought for the PS3 versions will come across to PSVita for free
-Everything in the series to date can be recreated by the player

This article also mentions the lack of LBP2 compatibility and some other things as well:

http://www.joystiq.com/2011/06/07/littlebigplanet-ps-vita-preview-touched-by-a-sackboy/

This one is a bit short but mentions that the game isn't a port. It also says that the LBP Vita create features are similar to a Vita Dev kit.

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/06/15/e3-replay-littlebigplanet-for-ps-vita/

I'll try to find others. I remember reading quite a few articles about LBP Vita that might be nice as sources =)

It looks like it's going to be really, really great ^^!

-No LBP2 compatibility? "We've got like 4million levels on PlayStation 3 but all those levels are created for the PlayStation 3 and leverage in that platform. With Vita what we wanna do is have a fresh planet. And on that planet will be games that are actually specific to the platform."

That's too bad. Sounds a bit like marketing spin for "Sony wouldn't let us" or "too much trouble". It's not like the "fresh" planet will mean no one will put up levels that are not specific to the platform. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the majority will just use the familiar run, jump and grab, with little or no touch mechanics.

Anyway, nice work on this, thanks.

Yeah the issue there is that they would still obviously want the the two games to be treated as individuals, and thus bought as individuals rather than all consumers buying LBPVita and many not returning to the PS3 as the vita is, at this point, looking superior.

The other issue is also the amount of levels is overwhelming to say the least. To be perfectly honest I would actually buy the vita simply to play the LBP2 levels(solely because I have not the time or space for a PS3). To have the Vita levels lost in an ocean of LBP2 levels wouldn't really help move the vita version along at all.

Oh and an interesting bit of info for you guys:
LBPVita is already available for pre-order on Amazon! And some even more astounding news: It's only $39.99
No verification on pre-order bonus' as of yet though.

Hmm.. I don't know if it goes without saying, but the Devs said that all the touch and tilt features shown in the trailer will be available for creators to implement into their own levels. So far everyone has just assumed this, and since it is true I don't know if it's worth noting down in the OP

I hope we get to use all the Vita costumes on LBP2 also...
as it says "Costumes can be shared with PS3" and not "Costumes can be ported from PS3 to vita"...
I also hope any Deco and stuff can be shared...
because I don't want to be forced to play one game or the other
just for stuff like costumes and deco... :I
you should only have to go to one or the other for the different gameplay systems,
not for the assets~ *mew

That brings me to my next query. If we have the Vita but have not previously owned a PS3, can we buy PS3 LBP DLC and have it fully functional on the Vita? I am guessing yes, but I have't come across any confirmation of this as of yet.2011-07-13 13:08:00

Also if you notice on the Trailer
Sackbots and maybe the player to?
Are able to be made to sit down or stand-up on the wall Top-down-view all without a DCS….
Whats up with that? Well whatever it is, I hope it makes its way to LBP2 also~

From what I see, a lot more than costumes are going to be transfered.

I see PS3 decorations, stickers and I think some PS3 materials.

EDIT:

A new planet? So the second it's launched there's 0 levels published!

*faints*

Now, lets not let what happen to LBP2(Cool levels get bombarded with costume giveaways) happen here.

BTW, I'm already brainstorming ideas for levels utilizing the new tools.

Don't worry to much~
They said we'd be able to share costumes with the two games.
so chances are we'll be able to use Vita costumes on LBP2 also.
I say it's a good chance they'll do this. Hey I'll even bet they will~
*mew

But if they don't... LBPV will be pointless in my eyes...
I'm not gonna give up my PS3 and play on only Vita.
I don't mind playing both, but only long as we can share with both games....

I wonder if the Vita could be used as tablet to build in LBP2...
Just in a WiiU controller way.
That would make game integration way cooler.

Does "4 player multi-player over wifi" mean we get the same kind of internet based online multi-player we have in PS3 LBP, or just 4 players who are all on the same local network?

Has anybody heard if we'll be able to cache/download community levels while on wifi so we can play them later when not on wifi? Especially for the quick "phone app" style games, like the air hockey in the demos, it would be great to have that saved locally to play anytime with friends, without always getting online to load it up.

We get both online multiplayer, adhoc multiplayer and local multiplayer.

I hope that it is possible to download levels as opposed to playing them online. If not, it would defeat the pourpose of a portable LBP. In LBP PSP you cannot play the levels unless you download them. Another point with LBP Vita is that I do not think the 3G would be powerful enough to handle playing online, though it would be able to handle downloading the levels.

I'll go for a hunt onthis right now

Thus is so cool! I just hope that the vita won't be a console that people buy just because it is 'cool' I would like it to be a console that little kiddies actually have to save money to buy. Because, if that was the case with the ps3, I bet most people on LBP would be great creators. I take my example from Apple's iPod touch, and iPhone and iPad, it seems, that it is a kids device, and ironically, I am typing this here post on an iPad... oh well, an iPad is better than nothing, right?2011-07-21 02:52:00

LBP2 tools are on the Vita. There are stickers. You could set the logic up but you can't transfer it over.

Wow, the more I hear about this game the more I want it. Too bad it's still so long until the Vita comes out.

By the way, just a little suggestion: could you edit in like "last updated: x/xx" in the title so we know when you've added something? I think many people would find that helpful.

Just thinking out loud, but I really hope that LBPV doesn't have the same GUI as the PS3 version. From what I've seen, all the menus look the same as they do in LBP2, which to me, frankly, seems a little bit lazy.2011-08-01 15:58:00

Maybe they want it to be familiar. I personally really would like the LBP2 UI on lbp vita. Then, I would not have to relearn where everything is when I switch from vita to ps3 and back again.

I don't want it to have a different layout than LBP2 version, but a different graphical style would be nice. Think the difference between the LBP1 pause menu and the LBP2 pause menu.

"We?re working hard to make the LittleBigPlanet PS Vita experience as true to LittleBigPlanet as we can."

That could mean they want it to be very very VERY similar to LBP2, or that they simply want to keep the whole play, create, share thing going on

This game is looking superb. In the gamescom trailer, did anyone notice the lighting? It looks significantly better than the lighting engine in LBP2. The graphical style has a sort of LBP1 charm to it, handmade worlds and all that. Day one purchase for me 2011-08-20 13:19:00

Finally, the Share aspect of LittleBigPlanet is fully-featured on the Vita. You can upload and download via Wi-Fi or 3G, and the community site, LBP.me is shared between the Vita and the PS3. The levels created for each are not compatible with one another, but the portal for browsing them is the same.

So, downloadable levels like the PSP version? Very good indeed!

I have only PSP version but i've played a few times on LBP PS3. I hope that Sackboy's jumps won't be as floaty as on PS3 'cause I died stupidly in"easy-looking" places even at "Swinging Safari".
I hope also that in LBPV create mode will have LBP PSP tricks like handy menu activated by "[ ]" and choice between dynamic an static when you choose shape of material.
If LBPV will be LBP PS3 exact portable copy, I'll rather buy LBP2.

^ it Won't have Them PSP things. LBP-Vita Is a Edit of LBP2.
And there are other reasons why you may want LBP-vita more then LBP2.
like how you can Play both LBP-vita on PS-vita or on your TV.

Sackboy in a bubble?!


EG Expo: LittleBigPlanet Vita is excellent

http://www.buttoncombo.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/LBP-screen1.jpg

Double Eleven Studios, a studio founded in 2009, are taking the reins from Media Molecule to create the PlayStation Vita version of LittleBigPlanet. If you were worried about them messing up the game then please don’t be, I walked away from LittleBigPlanet with a massive smile on my face.

As I sat down before wrapping my sweaty hands around the PlayStation Vita, a couple of thoughts were going through my mind; how will Double Eleven Studios make the fifth game in the series feel fresh again, and will it really look as it does in the screenshots.

To answer the first question, LittleBigPlanet felt like an entirely new experience but comfortably familiar all at the same time. The first level I played was your typical LittleBigPlanet affair, but was clearly created to showcase all of the Vita’s new features.

My first task was to lift up a block that was preventing me from progressing through the level. After jumping around for a while trying to latch onto things, I remembered that the Vita has a touchscreen, so I swiped the block and, hey presto, it moved. Throughout my short time with the game there were lots of section that took advantage of the front and back screen. It felt completely natural and added a lot to the experience. The most impressive part was a section that provided lots of different platforming blocks, and I had to push the front and back touchscreen to create a staircase for Sackboy to climb.

Throw in the motion sensing capabilities and you have yourself a feature packed game.

To answer the second question, it really does look as good as it does in the screenshots. LittleBigPlanet looked almost as beautiful as the PS3 version, showcasing sharp and colourful graphics that you wouldn’t previously expect from a handheld device.

http://www.buttoncombo.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/LBP-screen2.jpg

What I played was just the tip of the iceberg. There many features I didn’t get to play with, including the ability to take photos with the rear-facing camera and place objects into the game. Oh, and the extensive level editor. But what I did play, I can tell you that I am completely sold not just on LittleBigPlanet, but the PlayStation Vita as a gaming device.

Almost as good???... It has the 100% same graphics as LBP2 from looking at the videos and pics.
so shouldn't they said, it looks just as good? As I fail to see how it looks any worse then the normal LBP~ *mew

And I see Vita already has a nice new set up of power up and things like that bubble...
So like... Will LBP2 be getting any of these new things Vita is getting? if not. does this mean LBP Vita will
just down right replace LBP2 far as being the better game? because so far it has everything LBP2 has
far as tools and everything. and unless More stuff is on it's way to LBP2. I can't really see people
staying with LBP2 at that point... Hmm.. I don't know what to think about all of that. guess we'll have to wait to see
until we find out how all this stuff turns out. *mew

perfect scenario: something has to sell the Vita and clearly Sony are banking on LBP3... then further down the line, when the Vita has momentum, we get those extra features for LBP2

I've played LBPVita, and have to say: It's great fun! Quite tricky to use the back touchpad and then the touchscreen, but as a whole: yeah, I loved it. Ask me questions! 2011-10-03 13:38:00

It's not which game is better or worse between LBPVita and LBP2.. it's two different experiences. LBPVita inspires creators to take LBP out in the world, take photos of what they see and make the world around them a part of the game.2011-10-03 16:58:00

nice try, but I don't think so. it's not important we can take it around to places, not that it's a bad thing at all.
but we are not limited to only that with Vita in case you forgot, LBP-Vita can also be played on the TV, so why will we need LBP2 at that point? sense LBP-vita can do both, play it on your home TV or take it around with you.once I have the game, that'll be what I'll mostly be doing. "playing it on my big TV at home" and I'm not gonna use both if one is better.if LBP-vita has more power ups. more deco, more costumes, and so on then LBP2. and if Vita won't be able to share them tools with LBP2. then yes. LBP-vita will be the better game. and most people will end up moving over to it sadly. *mew

But Like I was saying. it still is a wait until it happens kind of thing, to know if LBP-Vita is truly better. also, LBP is a tool to create games with. and it takes many hours of our lifes to create things. I don't have enough time of day to create on both games, like many i'm sure. so it will be a case of what one ends up being better. as me and a lot of others sure won't go and waste all our time using both games at once to create our games on, at least not after a while. at first some people will, but once little time passes, people will have to end up picking what game they want to stay with. *mew

LBPVita will not have all of the content from LBP2. It will have the tools, but not all of the materials and such.

Hmm... I see.
So your saying you know everything LBP-vita will or will not have? yeah... we don't, me included. game is not out yet. me and others are just talking and speculating about it and what not. plus materials don't really matter. and unless they change it, LBP-vita even has sticker panel. add that and for the sure the other things we've seen it'll have all put together.it'll have anything that really matters if you ask me. and for the 1000th time. we can't judge what LBP-vita will have or not or what it will be in everyway before it's even out.That said, I can't myself say it'll be better yet. also the fact you said. "I stopped there" says you did not read my whole post.meaning you have no idea what I'm even talking about anyways. and whats with this trying to attack my posts game? like as if I'm saying something rude or mean? It's a fact that LBP-Vita may have a chance in beating LBP2 as a better game. but instead of just going around and saying what I'd like to happen to happen. I'm leaving other and all chances open. I'm not saying I want LBP-vita to replace LBP2. I'm just saying it may. and if that makes you mad. then that's just silly. *mew

I'm not trying to attack your post and I'm sorry if you thought I was being rude.

I'm not saying I know everything about it, I was just saying that there won't be all of the materials and so on as LBP2 has in LBPVita because they said somewhere that it wouldn't be possible, so I was telling you.
Also, your right. I didn't finish reading your post, but that was mainly because I was just quickly scanning the forums at that time.

perhaps MM will realise that people may opt for the Vita version and add all the abilities to the PS3 version. the ability to use the Vita as a PS3 controller almost suggests this is inevitable in my opinion. add the touch screen and the paint tool and you have a 'graphics tablet'

and yes, the Vita does look as good as the PS3 version 'on a smaller screen', but on the big screen it will not

Why? have you seen it on a big screen? even after watching the videos,
I did not notice it looking any difference. if it's worse, then it's not by very much from the looks of the videos.*mew

But like i've said before. I really do hope after a short while LBP-vita comes out.
for LBP2 to get a update so we get a lot of the vita stuff useable on LBP2.
like the new power ups and more Important IMO... the Decos... (>.>)

the Vita doesn't support 720p. 960 x 544, it can't possibly look as good on the big screen

I don't recon the vita version will ever replace the ps3 version, as many people (myself included) have much better things to spend our money on then a brand spanking new console that costs as much as a new ps3 to buy. anyone who doesn't have a ps3 already would literaly need to be mad to buy it over the ps3, and many people with the ps3 won't see the point in paying ?250 (is that price right?) for what essentially a smaller version of what they already have. that said, come a price drop to around ?150 (I mean in a number of years, not months) many people may change their mind. at the moment I think the VITA game will need to focus on keeping what I expect to be a reletivly small community alive until said price drop.
In regards to the arguement above, If I owned both I think the VITA version would become my creation platform of choice. creation via touch seems easier, I can do it on the train/ in the car, It seems to have an expanded toolset and I won't have to constantly swap discs between it and uncharted 2.

the price isn't the issue. both markets are entirely different and attract a different demographic. with cross platform play and connectivity between both console and Vita, it looks like a must buy for those enthusiasts that plug into both demographics. it's a win win situation for Sony and for us.2011-10-04 22:46:00

Yeah... Again I'll just wait until I see it for myself to give it real judgement.
I don't know the differences of 720P or them things at all.

Mad? What are you talking about? Lots of people had buy PS3 just for LBP back when PS3 was still over 400$ even. I know I would and am plan on buying Vita just for LBP-Vita.

there you go people, i reckon i'm right about the Vita being able to be used as a drawing tablet:


Sony's Shuhei Yoshida Outlines PlayStation Vita Remote Play Plans
Sony readying developer libraries for PS3 to Vita Remote Play and touch screen use.

3hr 6m ago / Anoop Gantayat

At the Tokyo Game Show a couple of weeks back, Sony demonstrated Remote Play on PlayStation Vita, showing PlayStation 3's Killzone 3 being played remotely on the portable system. Sony Worldwide Studios President Shuhei Yoshida has shared additional details on the company's Remote Play plans in an interview in this week's Famitsu.

The TGS demonstration was actually done via a wired connection between the PS3 and Vita. This was necessary because of the high volume of people at the event potentially causing interference. Yoshida promised that in more realistic circumstances, you'll be able to play wirelessly at the same level of speed shown at the event.

PS3 titles that are played via Remote Play need a bit of customization for memory and CPU use. Sony is finishing up work on a library that facilitates this and will be sending a beta version of this out to developers to test upcoming and old titles.

While Yoshida did not say when Remote Play support will be ready for PS3 games, Vita owners will get to try out one area of Remote Play at launch. Sony is finishing up work on the required customizations for Torne, a popular first party device that gives the PS3 digital video recorder capabilities. Following a December update, this will support Remote Play on Vita.

Outside of pure Remote Play, Vita can be used as a controller for your PlayStation 3. The system's screen can also act as a sub monitor. Yoshida said that Sony is looking into creating utility libraries that will allow PS3 developers to use the Vita's touch screen.

Think I will pass. The fact that its not LBP2 compatible is enough for me to save my money. I just wanted LBP2 on the go and transfer some logic over, but I am defiantly not rebuilding 6 months worth of logic over again , when I can just play it on the PS3. That and LBP2 will have a way bigger online community.2011-12-20 17:26:00

A lot of diffrence, main diffrence is fact that game will be made to look good only in smaller screen, other wise it's just a waste of effort and hardware prefermence to details that wont be even seen. Infact you can see this way of design on current Vita screen shots:

I've watched the most of the videos put out for LBP-vita full screen on my PC. It looks more then good enough. So i don't care what little differences in looks there are. and I do repeat the word little difference. as we all know LBP-vita is just a edited LBP2. so they won't look more blocky or anything hardly much. *mew

I won't change my mind until I see it on my TV for myself. if it looks bad to me. then i'll say it is. and if it looks good to me. then it simply will no matter what others think. plus i heard LBP will be like Sub HD on vita or something and that's like 520P or whatever, LBP hardly even looked 720P to start with. so again I think it won't look very different.

100$ for 32GB (or 16GB?) which is top, Vitas game cartriges got writeable memory for saves, DLC and patches, but developer decides ho to use it, so maybe LBP wont require memory card
