[PS3] Little Dick Planet - HAHA CHECK OUT WHAT MY LEVEL LOOKS LIKE HAHA XD

Man, it's amazing how much can change in a month. I went from not even caring about this game to definitely pre-ordering it. Damn, October can't come fast enough.

Since Amazon has the strategy guide thingy, I imagine the other three items will be split between Best Buy, Circuit City, and probably Game Crazy or something.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm definitely getting this on day one, I'm merely waiting for more details on the pre-order bonuses so I can decide which store to pick it up from.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Wow, I thought I had most of the people from GFF on my Friends List, but somehow I missed you! I definitely need to fix that.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Can't believe I missed this, but it seems GameCrazy is getting the LittleBigPouch pre-order bonus. Now we just need word on who's getting the stickers and the Nariko Sackgirl (probably the one I'll get if no real Sackboy plushies are announced).

I was speaking idiomatically.

In case anyone missed it a few days ago, Nariko Sackgirl has been announced for Best Buy.

I went to one of the BBs in town today to see if they had the vouchers yet, but I didn't see any. Once they do get them in I'll definitely get one, though I don't know if I'll be getting the game from BB (I already have the code for Kratos, but I'm definitely not getting the game from GameStop).

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I was just reading about that yesterday. While I am kinda miffed that one of the game's biggest and most touted features won't be available from the start (and, since no timetable was given for when it would come out, it could be weeks), there's still plenty to do otherwise that it won't be that noticeable (at first). I can still make levels offline with my sister, and hopefully the time will allow for most people to become good enough with the level editor so that people can work well together when they do finally go online.

FELIPE NO

I'm not awesome enough like Q to have the full game yet, but I'll settle for BETA CODE OUTTA NOWHERE for now.

Holy shit I never expected that to happen, since I figured all the places who were giving them out had done so already. I have to say, this is the first time I've actually gotten anything from being a member of the PlayStation Underground since I got three free issues of OPM back when I joined years ago. I wish they would have sent it earlier since it's already ending this weekend, but beggars can't be choosers (and the full game is coming out in about two weeks anyway).

Yeah, I'm mostly just gonna be checking out the pre-made levels and whatever levels others have made. I may tinker around with the level editor, but there's no point in seriously making anything since it's already been announced that none of the levels from the beta will be carried over to the full game.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

That was fun Shenlon. Just in case you haven't got my message yet, I was the one wearing the Elizabethan costume with the hat and stuff, and my sister was the bunny girl.

Anyway, I played the beta for about three hours today with my sister, and that was definitely the best multiplayer experience I've had on the PS3. We spent most of the time going through the first set of story levels, and after that we played a few user-created levels. All in all it was as great as I expected it to be, and it made me long for the full game even more.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I've been playing the game with my sister and enjoying it (hands down the best game I've played on the PS3), but I haven't played it online yet since my internet keeps fucking up. The cable company should be sending someone over today to hopefully fix it, so I should be able to play online without any problems soon.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I thought that was a change from the beta to the final game, since I noticed it even before I downloaded the patch. Either way, I kinda hate it, since I got used to shaking the controller to do it, and it just seemed more fun. I guess people who don't have controllers with Sixaxis complained or something though, since they were kinda screwed.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Well I think there have been two patches released so far, and people who got one of the recalled copies got the game totally unpatched while people who got the regular version already had the first patch installed. I have one of the regular copies and it's always been like that for me, so they must have made that change in the first patch.

As for Sixaxis, I believe it's only in official Sony controllers, so if you're using a third party PS3 controller you still wouldn't be able to remove the jetpack by shaking it.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I finally got to play some online today (every time I previously tried it kept borking out on me), and honestly the lag kinda kills it. It's not unplayable, but it's nowhere near as fun as it is playing offline multiplayer. Even though the lag wasn't prevalent all throughout, at the times it did occur it could be pretty lethal (it lead to me dying almost as much as the levels did).

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I'm down for later tonight as well. I'll probably be online sometime around 8PM Central Time, so anytime after that is good for me.

I've been playing the game with my sister, and right when we're close to the end they start adding in some 4x areas. We've managed to get all the items in every stage so far, so coming across these was a massive disappointment.

I don't think the patch that allows for online co-op level creation is coming until December. As for the servers, they still aren't perfect, but they were much better the last few times I played than from when I first played.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Just in case people missed it, Street Fighter LBP costumes are coming.

While these look freaking nice, I can't bring myself to pay $6 just to get all of them. I don't know why they have to charge so much money for something that essentially does nothing. God, the DLC for this game is worse than Pain, which charges you a $1 just to get additional characters. If they're gonna charge this much for these things, they should give you some additional content, like objects you can use in your own levels (the only thing that's done that so far is the God of War pre-order bonus DLC, and it was free).

And in other news, I keep hearing mid-December for the online co-op level creation patch, so hopefully it's up by next week at the latest. I still haven't really tried my hand at the level creation though (been too busy with school and stuff), so maybe this will motivate me.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Some pretty big updates today, MGS Costume Pack and Premium Level Pack coming next week, and a couple of patches have been released.

In regards to the MGS stuff, I have to say THANK GOD they finally made some DLC worth buying. Not the costume pack, of course (still not paying $6 for a bunch of costumes, Metal Gear or not), but the premium level pack. You actually get a costume (Gurlokovich Soldier, which actually looks more awesome to me than all of the stuff in the MGS costume pack except maybe Meryl), a bunch of level creation stuff (including some music tracks and some kind of paintball gun thingy that looks pretty cool), and probably best of all, 5 new story mode levels (and one challenge level). All this comes complete with 12 new trophies, all for just $6, which is a way better way of spending $6 on this game than the costume packs have been. Definitely buying this shit day one.

The patches, on the other hand, seemed to be more on the technical side, fixing things such as moderation issues, the 'Wheel of Death' glitch, and improving the search feature and peripheral support. The only real change most people are gonna see is the new in-game store, which lets you buy things from inside the store instead of having to exit out to the PS Store. Pretty good stuff, but since nothing was mentioned about the online co-op level creation, I guess that ain't happening until next year now (a shame, but with all this other new stuff they're adding I'll give them a pass for now).

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Well the MGS pack is only $6, so I imagine that's gonna be the standard now. I guess they could vary based on how much content is actually in the pack, but I can't really see anything going as high as $15 (though maybe if they had a bundle like the MGS costume pack and level pack together for $10, I could see that being doable).

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Just finished acing all the levels and getting all the items in the MGS pack with my sister, and I definitely have to say that it's awesome and worth the $6. Hell, The Paintinator alone might be worth that (we would have finished the levels much quicker if we didn't spend half the time just shooting each other). I don't know how good future level packs are gonna be, but if they keep up this quality I'll gladly keep paying them.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Fuck yes, finally a reason to get me playing this game seriously again:

There's also a mention of more levels, which are coming, and talk of a "big pack, bigger than MGS even," which is "up next for Mm."

Whether this big pack is separate from the Ratchet and Clank content is hard to tell. Either way, it's going to have to be pretty awesome if it intends to be bigger than the Metal Gear Solid pack that was released in December. We're looking forward to hearing clarification on whether this tweet is talking about one piece of DLC or not, not to mention the details of the pack itself. Hopefully we'll hear more soon.

Though I'd definitely prefer a R&C pack (and that's what it sounds like to me), any new official levels is good enough for me. I've been hopping online to play some user created levels every now and then, but most levels still don't reach the quality of MM's stuff (even if there are some really great levels, they usually have one or two things that end up keeping them from reaching that same quality). No question that I'll end up buying this day one no matter which it is.
