We’re sure most of you have seen some of the TV ads for LittleBigPlanet, especially since most of them have found its way on YouTube; including

Fun Shall Overcome


Japan’s TV Spot


In case you’ve missed it, Mm also has all three of the European LBP TV spots available on their site / blog.  Each spot shows how every user-generated level has a story of its own, whether its a homage to an ex-girlfriend (Janice Planet), a celebration of Mullet Rock (Metal Mullet Planet), or just a tribute to one's family (Cullen Family).

 
 

The great thing about these spots is that they were all built with the in-game Create tools!  That means anyone will be able to download it and experience them first hand.  Be on the lookout in the next few days as Mm will try to get the actual TV spot levels available for download.  

In other LBP updates, be sure to check out all the wild and crazy photos that Mm recently posted in their FlickrFEED; including images of the LittleBigPlanet Pop-Up Shop in Manchester, England where gamers go and get a very cool LBP experience. First they can create their own SackBoy or SackGirl with the use of crayons and paper cut outs, then they get to get their hands on a controller to use their gaming wits and collaborative teamwork on some LBP levels.  The experience then topped off when players are asked to design, shape and build objects or levels for others within the LBP Community to view and play.

Dude... the European TV spots are so much better than the one in the USA. You guys need to bring those ones over here so more people will know what the game's about.

So I was watching G4... and they said little big planet was deleting levels without notice because of copyright infringement... (levels like mirror's edge, god of war. mario) I hope they don't delete ninja warrior... cus that's one of my fav levels.. I was just wondering if they will delete my little big fantasy 7 level.. Iv spent a long time on it.. that would suck :/

So, from this we can conclude:
American commercials show the basic gist, and aren't that bad.
European commercials are funny as heck and show that anybody can do anything.
And Japanese are in their own little world making up crazy things.

Ah, those amazing Asians. Laughing

I love all of these!! They are great!!!

PS: That Asians comment wasn't meant to be racist, I'm actually kind of Asian.

they cant completely delete it, since its on your hard drive, they just delete it of the server, so here is a tip - RENAME IT, and REPUBLISH IT

I just deleted and edited my level because a price on it was a PSP and I don't know if it could get banned from that. Go and check it out its called Bright Lights. Its sort of dark and dim but that's when the lights come in. I hope you all like it!

Don't worry about random level deletion. Mm only "goes after" those levels that have been reported via the "Good Grief" thing. They certainly don't have the man power to even try out, much less delete the tens of thousands of levels out there...more than half of which have copyrighted materials and other Terms of Service Violations in them. So relax and just Have Fun. Smile

Oh yeah! G4 talking about deleting levels? Sounds like the biased BS only they can spout out. The mods can remove a single object in a level if someone reports it and it is found to be offensive.

Swav331 and el_nivek: I'm going to look up your levels.

I wouldnt worry about your level getting delete it, if it does, you still have it on your hard drive, so just figure out what is it you did that made it offensive fix it, and republish it.

MM, you need to address the fact that these hard-working users are getting their content deleted. It makes me very hesitant to bother to become a part of the "Create & Share" community, as I'm afraid something I spend hours-or days- on could be deleted with no notice or explanation. Mark my words:

Release a statement on this NOW, or you will see a huge backlash from your former users. This will get ugly if you don't do SOMETHING about it now. Even if you release a statement saying "We will delete levels with no notice if the content that possibly infringes on other IPs" people will respect that, and it will be better than just saying nothing at all. Silence on this will only cause RAGE! Do something about it.

swav331-

When a level is "moderated," it is locked out on the "My Moon" section, as well. There's no way to access even the EDIT function unless your system is completely disconnected from the internet, and then once it's reconnected- you are still locked out. The only way to save your level is to create an extra copy on your "moon" before you publish it, as the original space it occupied will be locked up, too. Then you'll still have an accessable version, unless you publish from this slot as well.

There was no level, just the sticker pack. Some outlets were calling it a "Level pack" which is inacurate. There was a very good God of War level up, but Media Molecule has deleted it! Frown

Twice in the last 24 hours my LBP has frozen up, repeating the un-clearable error "a problem has occured while trying to access the Playstation Network." According to my XMB, I'm still signed into the network. When I try to quit game, my system freezes up and must be reset by holding down the power switch for 10 seconds. I smell a new patch (I hope). Bring on 1.40! Smile

Well I would mind paying 5$ a month at the moment. Not that I don't have the money, but because well here in Holland it's quite hard to get a creditcard and SCEE isn't really keen on getting those PSN card out here in Europe either, so that would mean no more online play for me. If they would get other means to pay for a sub, then I wouldn't mind..

Hahaha that would be a blast on games like warhawk/socom then. Then all you would run into would be half full servers. I wouldn't mind paying at all, just if they make it creditcard only (like PSN) Sony would lose a lot of business in NL/BE and some other EU countries.
I haven't been able to play your level yet cause well yeah the servers were downish/unplayable. I'll surely check it out in a fews Smile

"PSN is free which is why its so crappy. I wouldnt mind paying 5$ a month if it was alot faster or something. XBOX live is 80 a year, and its fast as hell."

I guess it all boils down to personal experiences. I've had lots of trouble with XBL. Laggy servers, online games which are unplayable for months until patches FINALLY arrive (after I'm done with the game), network outages. It ****** me off to no end that I have to pay for it, and all the problems that XBL has is like twisting the knife. The first 2 days of LBP were the only times I had a problem with PSN, EVER. I've had my PS3 for about a year and use it constantly. And it's worth noting that you shouldn't even be blaming Sony for Mm's servers. Sony is publishing the game, but Mm is not a first party developer.

I'm gonna be ****** off if they just start deleting levels. Those levels were made by fans of whatever it is they made. The Super Mario levels, and Mirror's Edge Levels being prime examples. Its not like those people who made the levels are profiting from it. And at the same time, it's kinda like free advertisement for them in a way.

I hope they fixed this, or Mm is going to have alot of disappointed/****** off people on their hands Frown

Please, do address in more detail these levels that you are deleting. I heard that even the God of War levels have been deleted?! That is crazy! You gave out free God of War costumes and in game sticker packs, and now you are saying if we actually use those items to design a God of War level it will get deleted? From the 'banned song' controversy, the horrible server problems, and now this... I am not too sure how much time I am willing to invest in this community any longer. I would be none to happy if I found my user created stuff just gone...From what I hear, if a level is modded off the server, it is deleted/blocked completely from your user account/harddrive, too? Please address this and clear it up!

I don't care if I step on toes here, but seriously, some of those levels like the mario ones were just awful... some of them needed to be deleted... now if they're taking out the really good levels, which are so few it's scary, then I'd be annoyed, but so far, I'm not seeing that, in fact with such an abundance of crummy levels, it'd be nice if they moderated those and started deleting them, cause some of the levels up there are just plain awful... also, people if you're going to make user created prizes... can you think of something better than a gold trophy?... why not something useful, cause seriously, if that's all you got to offer... please, just... don't.

1. What happened to the seaside background?
2. What happened to the ice element? (Glass isn't the same)
3. They originally said that the week one t-shirt was free, and the Killzone costume was in the game

MM really needs to step it up and pay attention to what their fans want!!! THEY HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY! But no, MM just gives us high high hopes, then takes them away, they need to come out with downloadable or a patch with lots of new dangers that do different things, (eg. ice, water, etc) They need to keep the costumes coming!!! lots of peoples favourite thing about lbp is the costumes, so why waste it MM, WHY??? One last thing, you should make an add on with more "professionally" created lvls (more story lvls)

Great game MM but your not handleing the newfound fans very well, be careful or they won't be your fans anymore,

Sincerely, nedac

"fun shall overcome" is an example of a terrible ad- it makes LBP look like just a multiplayer 2.5D platformer, and playes into the notion that it's just a kids' game. It doesn't go into the online aspects, or creation at all..

Sony's always been bad at getting the point across in advertising... from "You are not E" to current system ads that just show game footage, and don't even touch on the free online, and a little thing called BlueRay...

not to mention the "3" ads announcing the ps3, and the ads with the system in a room with random off-topic nuttiness going on. The fans might have oohed and aah'd when a big 3 covered the city, but the people they really needed to reach were thinking "3 what? spiderman 3?"

If you are scared your level will be deleted and you won't be able to edit it again (like my level lightsaber duels, which won't publish even if I change the name to light sword duels) go to the tools bag, got to functions, and save your whole level. Haven't tried that yet,see if it works.
