Ok, its been quite awhile since my last started thread, so here we go again: The question is: Would you rather buy LBPVita than LBPKarting? Yes, no and why? If you're getting both, then imagine you only have the resources to get one. Which one would you prefer? If you're lazy or shy to post, I made a poll so you people can submit quick answers. Ok, I'll start: Mmmm. Actually its a tough question. I think I would rather buy LBPKarting. The thing is, I spent a lot of time in the Beta, so I got a lot of experience in the 3D Edit Tool, and I made some quite popular levels for the community in the Beta, and I want to recreate them before someone has the chance to steal my ideas jeje, so I want to get Karting the launch day. Also, we Beta testers get a lot of advantage knowing the new Create Mode, so I want to use that knowledge. Now, LBPVita is almost the same that LBP2. Actually that's the particular reason of why I want to get LBPV, but I think I can wait for it with LBP2 and Karting. The problem is that if I want to get LBPVita, I need to buy a Vita (duh) which costs ($250); then LBPVita ($50?) and a memory card, lets say 8GB ($30). So I would need to get quite a lot of money (at least $150) really quickly, and would probably generate annoying debts to myself. And here in America, even if we buy LBPV the launch day, will have the chance to begin creating almost a week after its release in EU. But if I buy Karting, I can start creating before EU (), and only need to spend about ($60?). And then I could get the Vita when I have some money (probably in Christmas lol), with an extra game, like Uncharted. So, what are your thoughts people?

The easiest poll I've ever taken

Vita for me. I was in Karting beta, and I really didn't like it. Plus, LBPV will show us all new tools and stuff.

The easiest poll I've ever taken If I had a Vita already I would probably but LBPVita first too lol. I think that the Beta had a lot of bugs and glitches, and that the final version will be much better. Anyway, even if it remained pretty much the same, I loved the 3D editor, specially for the fact you can always move the camera, even while placing objects, etc. I think LBPV also has this feature. ROFL Karting is losing. Maybe it was a bad idea posting this in LBPV's forum. Neh just joking.

lbpv for me. you know how racing games die quicker. also lbpv is portable obviously. karting beta was great. it felt that the beta was too short cause you only had about 1-3 weeks to play it. anyway im pre-ordering both like any other lbp gamer but lbpv i've been waiting for this since last year e3 :kz: i keep having dreams of lbpv too.

I spent quite a bit of time with both. Although I enjoyed Karting.... in the end, LBPVita has MUCH more potential. The ability to create games well outside of it's genre is a big plus. The levels created in Karting that weren't racers seemed pretty clumsy. Although I plan on buying both. I look forward to playing everyone's creations in Karting. And, of course, the Vita add-on pack for LBP2 also makes owning a Vita tempting.

the Vita add-on pack for LBP2 also makes owning a Vita tempting. what do you mean by that? if you are talking about lbp2 dlc costumes to lbpv then karting can do the same as they say. if you ment cross controller then that's seperate. there should be a app for it later in the future.

ROLFZ Now its 7 against 1. And that 1 is me lol. Actually I was going to vote for LBPV, but then I saw my pocket and stated otherwise.

ROLFZ Now its 7 against 1. I guess that is cause this is a lbpv fourm.

It was a little like waltzing into Babycare and taking a poll on condoms

I guess that is cause this is a lbpv fourm. Lol, I'll ask again in a LBPKarting forum another day. And in another webpage beacuse I don't think the mods will like the same thread in different sections of the web. And I don't want to find out.

2012-08-18 03:36:00 Author: yugnar Posts: 1478

LBPV for me , 9-1 now. Portability was the main selling point to me for LBPV. Even if it were half of what LBP2 was, I'd still buy it. The additional logic tools and new gameplay features make it even better. I have limited interest in racing games though, so I may have a 'slight' bias.

Im sure everyone is going to get karting and vita. im pre-ordering both. who doesn't like a kevin butler as a pre-order dlc pack in karting? and who doesn't like bioshock as a pre-order dlc pack in vita? lbpv is a portable lbp2 with psp dymanic/static option! so you can make games on the go. karting well... you make karting adventures at your living room. nothing bad with that but if you are one of those people that are lazy or sick in bed and you want to play lbp then lbp vita is for you.

I think LBPVita doesn't just edge out LBPKarting, I think it takes a hundred yard dash and kicks it with size ten steel-capped boots into the middle of the next millennium.

I'll take both, because both will be on Vita

My only issue is that I will be on LBPV on the 25th, so I won't get to make sweet costumes right away. oh well.

I'll take both, because both will be on Vita Ehmmm... Actually Karting won't be on Vita, you know? At least not for this year nor the next.

Here's the cavalry! Now we're only outnumbered 1:5 in stead of 1:10! I'm the same as you, I don't have a Vita and 250 euros + extra for a memory card is a little high just to play LBPV.

They're both really promising LBPs, but I'd stick to Karting, I mean, even though I'm buying both on the weekend after they come out. Karting is something new that happened to LBP. I like to try new things rather than the same thing.

Defiantly LPBV,I'm just not felling LBPK...It seems too clumsy to CREATE with,And not as random and creative to PLAY... I feel like LBPK is just "borrowing" LBP's name,Else I don't like karting, This wouldn't be such an issue if I would see that LBPK had more potential then just racing,But sadly I did not see that happening with LBPK,while with LBPV I know just what to look forward to,And I can't wait.

LBPV, because it's awesome! I'm not biased at all

At least there are 3 sacks with me now lol. I went on an small vacation since Friday, and just returned home, and now I know why so many people vote for LBPV. I missed creating so much! Again, I think that LBPV is more interesting than LBPK, but spending so much money for a Vita is not so easy. Anyway, hopefully the LBP-Vita bundle will include all we need (4GB Memory Card -not confirmed-; a LBPVita copy and the Vita console). If we can get that for $250 consider myself in the launch day! Hopefully it will also be launched here in Mexico at a decent price, cause I won't get to the States until Christmas

At least there are 3 sacks with me now actully 2. you voted yourself.

Lol that just makes me get depressed Hmm not really. That means I will have no competence against the hall of fame in Karting! Mwhahahahahahahahahahaha!

Karting beta was kinda disappointing. Felt like Modnation Racers. Some terrible user created maps (Sorry guys but seriously not what I had expected), and only 3 official levels to play. I'd buy it for the oldschool official levels to play local play with friends, but I'll probably avoid the internet based stuff for karting. Vita on the otherhand is loads of fun and I feel that because I worked hard in the beta that I had a major influence on how the game turned out which is really cool! Totally getting that day one. Mainly to justify my stupid waste of $300 on the vita XD Also don't get your hopes up for LBP Karting on the vita. The most we'll get is a crappy standalone version for the vita that has no live online play *Cough cough* modnation road trip

I hated Karting beta, and I also hate ModNation Racers: Road Trip. If you want a GOOD karting game, play Mario Kart.

I am not into racing games at all. I try to be. My friends love them, but for some reason I get bored very quick at going around in circles.

I agree. I hated Karting beta, and I also hate ModNation Racers: Road Trip. If you want a GOOD karting game, play Mario Kart. modnation road trip was OK. i can get used to frame rates and loadings. it's better than psp modnation. that felt limited with the whole customize thing (But give credit, on the psp) and controls and speed is not like the others. drift in psp was stiff. sweep is really bad in psp. i liked psp modnation but it fell short with the roadtrip even though roadtrip is missing something. i really love road trip music, sweeping, (cost no boost which i actully like...) touch to use weapons as to fill some boost, and the newer weapons. this game is not going to be better than other vita racing games by a long shot but it is ok. i think we can agree ridge racer vita sucked. atleast psp modnation had ONLINE multiplayer. roadtrip had 4 player adhoc...

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!! Just ordered my Vita! It should be arriving by September 10th lolz. And I also managed to buy it in the USA, so it will only cost me $250! Whoooooo!!!! Hopefully I'll get enough money for LBPVita in time, but for now, I'll buy the LBP2-Vita Cross Play for sure!

The whole reason I got my Vita was for LBP on the go. I didn't really like the Karting beta, so the choice is obvious.

Do I only have to pick one? I got both on pre-order...

Definitely LBP Vita. It's kinda funny how LBP Karting is finally the big "3D LBP" we've all been waiting for, but so much of it just feels like a step backwards from LBP2.

A step back... Isn't that exactly what Prehistoric was when they introduced the Move compatibility?

2012-08-31 01:39:00 Author: Chris---Kristy Posts: 83

The only problem with Prehistoric is that it was multiplayer. I tried playing it once, but it told me that I needed to play with a friend or more.

The only problem with Prehistoric is that it was multiplayer. I tried playing it once, but it told me that I needed to play with a friend or more. I would have preferred Prehistoric to be a DLC for LBP1 back then, rather than being "a somewhat independent game"; with no Create and Multiplayer-Only thing. P.D. 24 against 4?!!?? Ok, I'll admit I've lost this one, but I'LL BE BACKKKK!!! P.D."2": Ok, actually, after getting my Vita (finally), I think that LBPVita excites me a little more than Karting now lol.

Yea it would've been better as that. If only the costume parts from it transfered.

2012-08-31 02:59:00 Author: amoney1999 Posts: 1202

So no one seems to like how Prehistoric turned out... Well how was the Move Pack? LBPK isn't suppose to be the "great LBP 3D" we've been waiting for... Its a new LBP to keep us somewhat happy until the PS4 is released and a new LBP for that console is released!

Its a new LBP to keep us somewhat happy until the PS4 is released and a new LBP for that console is released! I really don't think so... I highly doubt that there will ever be LBP3... And i highly doubt that it's just an LBP to keep us busy for a while (At least that's not what UnitedGames think...) And if there will be an LBP3 i DON'T want it to be in 3D,People need to realize LBP is a 2D game in it's nature... I don't get how is it that everywhere i go i hear people say that everything is possible in LBPK,That it's what you would expect from an LBP game,Yet all i see is KARTING KARTING KARTING argg,I hate karting,But if "everything" is possible i wouldn't mind,Heck someone who hates platforming can like LBP2 , Yet i don't see any verity in LBPK levels,Its all karting...I don't care if its different kinda of racing,For me it all looks the same,Just different design...This is what bothers me the most with LBPK,Is "everything" really possible...?

Obviously, I chose Karting. Easy decision.

2012-08-31 23:54:00 Author: CirkuzFr3ek Posts: 194

I choose the Vita, because you have a bigger range of options for creating, I would imagine the story mode would be way better in LBPVita than in LBPKarting, and nothing beats full on platforming. That's the whole reason LBP became so succesful, because of it's awesome platforming and such, not because of karting.

Now I just went from "I will never buy this game" to "I will only think about buying this game if it goes down in price." Guess you can tell what my answer to this poll is.

That's the whole reason LBP became so succesful, because of it's awesome platforming and such, not because of karting. That's debatable. Both games have options that the other doesn't have. Can you really say Vita has the bigger range, with Karting having full 3D create? And IMHO the reason LBP became so successful is Create mode, not platforming. And both games have that. And to those who were disappointed in the Karting beta: why not wait for the final game before judging it?

2012-09-03 13:54:00 Author: Rogar Posts: 2284

Definitely LBPV for me. I played the beta of LBPK and, well, I thought it could have been better. A lot better. It could have been so great, but it wasn't. So I choose LBPV. I accidently clicked on LBPK in the poll though

I will choose LBPV, but I'm pretty hyped for Karting as well. (Indicated by my previous posts here. :3) But since I got in the LBPV BETA, I have more insight about how that game will be. While Karting is more unknown for me, so LBPV it will be, for now. I plan on buying htem both anyway, but Karting on VITA is a huge plus if they'll ever make it.

I got in karting beta. I know how MOST of it goes. i knew lbpv is like any other lbp games but new tools and dymanic/static option from psp. karting beta was great. just got lbpvita and beat the story mode and waiting for the servers to go on. creating was the same for the most of it. was strange to get used to the whole change layers thing but still works fine. but still, vita all the way for this.
